Jalen Beeks - Grabs first save with PittsburghBeeks earned the save in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Marlins, allowing one hit in one-third of an inning.
ImpactAfter Aroldis Chapman pitched in Tuesday's contest, David Bednar was initially called upon to close out a 3-0 lead Wednesday. However, the Pirates would turn to Beeks with two outs in the ninth to face the left-handed Kyle Stowers after Bednar gave up a run on a pair of hits. Beeks would allow an infield hit to Stowers that loaded the bases before inducing a flyout from Xavier Edwards to close out a two-run victory. It's the 10th save of the year for the 31-year-old Beeks, his first since joining the Pirates from the Rockies at the trade deadline. Beeks has pitched well for Pittsburgh, posting a 2.30 ERA across 15.2 innings, though he's still likely behind Chapman, Bednar and Dennis Santana in the Pirates' bullpen hierarchy.

Bailey Falter - Blanks Marlins for eighth winFalter (8-7) earned the win Wednesday over Miami, allowing two hits and three walks over 7.1 scoreless innings. He struck out five.
ImpactFalter was excellent Tuesday, holding the Marlins to just a pair of singles en route to a second straight victory and eighth on the season. The scoreless effort also marked Falter's first quality start since June 18 -- he hadn't gone more than 5.2 innings in any of his previous 10 outings, posting a 5.79 ERA in that span. The left-hander's ERA now sits at 4.20 on the season with a 1.27 WHIP and 89:39 K:BB across 128.2 innings. Falter's currently lined up for a road matchup with the Cardinals in his next outing.
