Nicasio preserved a 6-4 Dodgers lead in the ninth inning of Friday's game against the Rockies to earn his first career save. After Adam Liberatore allowed back-to-back one-out singles to put the tying run on base, Nicasio whiffed former teammates Nolan Arenado and Wilin Rosario to extinguish the threat. The 28-year-old has adapted well to bullpen role this season with an excellent 1.02 ERA and 25 strikeouts over 17.2 innings, and should continue to see usage in high-leverage situations. However, with Kenley Jansen returning from the disabled list Friday, Nicasio probably doesn't have much of a shot at seeing regular save chances.
