SEPTEMBER 2 • Associated Press

Save situation unravels Burke (5-5) was credited with the loss and a blown save to St. Louis on Thursday, when he allowed six unearned runs on two hits and three walks while striking out one.

Impact Reds manager Terry Francona eschewed primary closer Emilio Pagan, instead bringing in Burke to close out a one-run lead to begin the top of the ninth inning. Burke was on the verge of closing it out, but an error on a routine fly led to six unearned runs. Pagan had thrown 19 pitches the previous, and Francona may have considered the team's top closer as unavailable.

Escapes with second save Burke secured the save against the Athletics on Thursday, allowing two runs on two hits and no walks in the ninth inning. He struck out one.

Impact The Reds had to turn elsewhere in Thursday's save situation -- closer Emilio Pagan was likely unavailable after working each of the past two days. Burke, who has operated primarily as a setup man, was called upon and needed every bit of the 6-3 lead he was granted, serving up a two-run shot to Brian Serven before closing it out. The southpaw is now 2-for-2 in save chances this season, holding a 2.73 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 51:31 K:BB with 13 holds over 56 innings.

Impact Burke entered the game in the bottom of the sixth with Cincinnati leading 5-2. The 29-year-old then allowed a single to Brandon Marsh which was followed up by a two-run homer by Edmundo Sosa to cut the Reds lead to 5-4.
