Kintzler threw a scoreless inning with two strikeouts to record his 16th save in Thursday's win at Seattle.
Kintzler bounced back after allowing a home run in a blown save in Wednesday's loss. While he has just a 5.9 K/9, he's converted 16 of 19 save chances this season and faces little competition for the closer role with the rest of Minnesota's bullpen struggling.
