From Associated Press:
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Francisco Rodriguez set the major league record with his 58th save this season, closing out the Los Angeles Angels' 5-2 win over Seattle on Saturday night.
Rodriguez two days earlier tied the 1990 mark of 57 set by Bobby Thigpen with the Chicago White Sox. The Angels right-hander also posted a save on Wednesday to help the Angels clinch the AL West title.
As much as we like to see an undeserving anomaly like Thigpen lose his record, we are just a tad melancholy as the record was set in the final year of one of the great old baseball palaces, the original Comiskey Park.
