JUNE 1, 2021 • Associated Press

Credited with win in relief Rogers (2-2) was the pitcher of record in Monday's 3-2 win over the Orioles in 10 innings after striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

Impact Starter Jose Berrios departed with the game tied 1-1 and a runner on first base when Rogers was summoned from the bullpen. Rogers was quickly able to extinguish a potential Orioles rally, striking out Anthony Santander on three pitches before inducing an inning-ending double play from Maikel Franco. The Twins then plated two runs in the top of the 10th, but Rogers didn't stick around for the save chance, which fell to Hansel Robles. Rather than leaning exclusively on a pitcher in future save scenarios, expect manager Rocco Baldelli continue to mix and match with Rogers and Robles in high-leverage late-inning situations.

Gives up two runs in save Rogers recorded the save Saturday against the Royals despite allowing two runs on two hits with two strikeouts and zero walks during the ninth inning.

Impact The 30-year-old thankfully entered with a 6-3 lead, as Adalberto Mondesi took him deep on a two-run shot to pull Kansas City within a single run. The left-hander was able to finish off the save, and it was the first time since May 13 he surrendered an earned run. Hansel Robles has picked up three saves over the past couple weeks, and he also gave up a run Saturday while notching a hold. Rogers and Robles appear to be splitting the closer's role, though neither likely has a firm grip.

Tallies third save Rogers allowed only one walk across 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the save Tuesday against the Orioles.

Impact Rogers relieved Alex Colome with two outs in the eighth inning to protect a two-run lead. He had little trouble doing so, though the tying run did reach base in the final frame after an error and walk. However, Rogers induced a groundout to end the game to secure his third save of the season. The Twins closer role appears to have devolved into a committee, though Rogers and Hansel Robles are likely to account for the majority of the team's saves for the time being.

Takes second loss Rogers (0-2) allowed an unearned run on one hit over one inning Sunday, striking out two and taking a loss against Oakland.
