Closer Francisco Rodriguez ties Troy Percival for 9th place on all-time saves list

Minneapolis — With his 10th save of the season Saturday, closer Francisco Rodriguez tied Troy Percival for ninth place on the all-time list with 358.

Considering how many former ninth-inning greats he's passed to get to this point — including three Hall of Famers — it would stand to reason Percival would be just another name on the list.

But not to Rodriguez. Far from it, actually.

It's Percival who Rodriguez credits with teaching him the ins and outs of being a successful reliever during the duo's days with the then-Anaheim Angels.
