Craig Kimbrel set a rookie record for saves prior to the All-Star break by picking up No. 27 against the Rockies on Thursday.
Kimbrel pitched a perfect ninth for his 16th save in his last 17 chances. Next up for him is Todd Worrell's NL rookie record of 36 saves, established back in 1986. Neftali Feliz holds the major league record after saving 40 games last year.
