Nabs first save of season
Alvarado struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Brewers.
Analyse
The Athletics deployed Scott Barlow and Hogan Harris prior to the ninth inning in a close game. Mark Leiter didn't appear, so it's somewhat notable that Alvarado was trusted to lock things down in the ninth while pitching for the second day in a row. Alvarado struggled a bit early in the season after opening the campaign on the big-league roster, but he's allowed just one hit while striking out nine over 4.1 innings across three appearances during this stint in the majors. He's collected a save, four holds and a 2-0 record despite his 5.79 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 18:7 K:BB through 14 innings overall. Alvarado is the eighth pitcher to earn a save for the Athletics this season as the team's closing situation continues to be a large committee.

The Athletics recalled Alvarado from Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.
Analyse
The team DFA'd Joel Kuhnel in a corresponding move. Alvarado pitched in 10 games out of the Athletics' bullpen earlier this season and posted an 8.38 ERA, 1.86 WHIP and 9:7 K:BB across 9.2 innings. He has a 2.25 ERA and 16:4 K:BB across 12 innings with Las Vegas.
