Joakim Soria sustained his third blown save of the season on Monday night, surrendering three runs in 2/3 of an inning.
Soria came on in the eighth to protect a one-run lead, but put a pair of runners on before allowing a three-run homer to Luis Valbuena. The blown save was his first since June 24, but Soria simply has not looked like himself lately. He entered August with a 1.52 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and only one homer allowed in 29 2/3 innings on the season, but has now yielded eight runs on 12 hits -- four homers -- in 9 2/3 innings this month.
