Collects eighth save
Bednar earned the save in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Phillies, striking out one batter in a perfect ninth inning.
Analysis
Bednar was brought out for the ninth to protect the Pirates' one-run lead. He needed just seven pitches (five strikes) to get through the frame, four of which came on a Kyle Schwarber strikeout. Bednar has converted on all eight of his save opportunities this season and has a 3.74 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 31:5 K:BB across 21.2 innings. He appears to have reestablished himself as Pittsburgh's closer, having recorded the club's past four saves.

Collects first win of season
Bednar (1-4) picked up the win Friday, striking out the side in the ninth inning of a 5-4 victory over the Phillies.
Analysis
With the score tied 4-4 in the top of the ninth, Bednar carved up the Phillies' 8-9-1 hitters on 14 pitches (10 strikes), including an impressive three-pitch whiff of the red-hot Trea Turner to end the frame. The Bucs then pushed a run home to walk it off and get their closer his first win of the year. The right-hander appears to be back in top form and rewarding the organization's faith in him after a rough 2024 and early-season demotion in 2025 -- since rejoining the big-league roster in mid-April, Bednar has a 2.75 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 29:3 K:BB through 19.2 innings while converting all six of his save chances.

Picks up seventh save
Bednar earned the save in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Astros, allowing one hit while striking out two in a scoreless ninth inning.
Analysis
Bednar has now turned in five straight scoreless innings, allowing just two hits while striking out five in that span. After a shaky start to the year, the 30-year-old Bednar has lowered his ERA to 4.12 with a 1.32 WHIP and 27:5 K:BB across 19.2 innings while logging seven saves. He's recorded the last three saves for Pittsburgh and may be separating himself from Dennis Santana in the closer committee.
