Takes walk-off loss Hader (3-1) allowed a run on three hits while failing to record an out, taking the loss Sunday versus the Rangers.

Impact Hader was called upon in a non-save situation Sunday, but he failed to keep the game tied at 5-5. He allowed a walk-off single to Brandon Nimmo. It's just the second time in 17 appearances Hader has given up a run this season, and he remains a perfect 10-for-10 in save chances. Hader has added a 1.17 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 25:8 K:BB over 15.1 innings as the Astros' unquestioned closer since making his season debut June 3.

Hader has converted on all 10 of his save opportunities this season and has a 0.59 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 25:8 K:BB across 15.1 innings.

Dominant in eighth save Hader earned a save against the Twins on Tuesday, striking out two batters in a perfect inning of work.

The veteran closer made quick work of Minnesota, notching a pair of punchouts while retiring the side in order on nine pitches.

He's gone 8-for-8 on save chances so far while giving up only one run and posting a 21:5 K:BB over 13 innings spanning 13 appearances.
