Mike Gonzalez earned his first save of the season in Saturday's 6-5 victory over the Indians.
Kevin Gregg entered the game to a 6-2 lead but quickly coughed up three earned runs while only retiring two batters. Gonzalez was tasked with recording the final out, and did so by getting Indians outfielder Grady Sizemore to ground out. For now, Gregg remains the closer in Baltimore. But his leash is certainly getting smaller.
