Collects save No. 23
Latz earned a save against the Angels on Monday, issuing one walk and striking out one batter over one scoreless inning.
Analyse
Latz entered in the bottom of the 10th inning with Texas up 4-1. He had to grind a bit, working around a one-out walk and throwing 24 total pitches, but the right-hander was able to get three outs without allowing any runs. Latz lowered his season ERA to a sterling 1.83 and is now up to 23 saves, sixth-most in the American League.

Records six-out save
Latz allowed two hits and a walk while striking out three over two scoreless innings to earn the save in Friday's 2-1 win over Baltimore.
Analyse
Latz was asked to protect a one-run advantage for the final two frames and ultimately converted his 22nd save of the season, though the ninth inning provided some drama. Baltimore put the potential tying run in scoring position before Christian Franklin singled to right, but Brandon Nimmo threw Leody Taveras out at the plate. Latz clinched the save by striking out Christian Encarnacion-Strand to end the game. Latz has been reliable all season long for Texas, posting a 1.87 ERA and converting 22 of his 25 save chances.

Blows save but earns win
Latz (3-1) was tagged with his third blown save of the season but earned the win in relief Tuesday against the Giants. He allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk while striking out one across one inning.
Analyse
Latz entered the game in the ninth with the Rangers holding a two-run lead, but he allowed a two-run single to Bryce Eldridge, resulting in the blown save. However, the lefty was credited with the win when Ezequiel Duran walked it off for Texas with a ground-rule double in the bottom of the ninth. Latz isn't on his most productive stretch, as he's allowed earned runs in three of his last four appearances. He owns a 4.26 ERA across 6.1 innings and six outings since the All-Star break.
