RHP Michael Mariot earned his second save of the week -- and of his career -- Saturday night, when he allowed one run on one hit and two walks with no strikeouts over one inning as he closed out the Phillies' 10-8 victory over the Mets.

He finished the game out by retiring the potential winning runs -- 1B Lucas Duda and C Travis d'Arnaud -- on a pop-up and a comebacker, respectively.
