Impact Bachman hit Alex Freeland with a pitch in Friday's 1-0 loss but otherwise had a clean weekend. The pair of appearances were Bachman's first since May 30, as he had went unused out of the bullpen over a stretch of four games while he recovered from an illness.

Impact Bachman's last appearance came Saturday against the Rays, though he has reportedly been feeling under the weather since Friday. It's unknown whether he's trending toward a stint on the IL, but he will likely remain sidelined for at least another day or two while he recovers.

Notches seventh hold Bachman recorded a hold against Toronto on Sunday, retiring the only batter he faced in the eighth inning.

Impact Bachman was called upon in the eighth frame with two outs after the Blue Jays loaded the bases on a trio of singles. The right-hander faced an imposing task with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at the plate, but Bachman was able to get Toronto's star slugger to ground out. Bachman's usage Sunday was indicative of the high-leverage role he's moved into this season -- he leads the Angels with seven holds, which is almost twice as many as he accumulated over his first two MLB campaigns combined. Bachman has earned manager Kurt Suzuki's trust by putting up a 3.32 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 21:10 K:BB over 19 innings spanning 14 appearances.

Falls apart late, blows save Bachman blew the save Sunday against the Mariners, allowing one run on two hits while striking out two over two innings.

Impact Bachman entered in the eighth inning with a one-run lead and was dominant early, retiring the side on just seven pitches before returning for the ninth. The right-hander was one out away from securing the save but allowed Seattle to rally back-to-back hits that brought in the tying run. It marked the first earned run Bachman's allowed this season across four appearances (5.2 innings), but he's now blown all three save opportunities since being recalled in July of last year.
