Lugo saved a 6-5 victory over Arizona on Friday, allowing one walk with two strikeouts in the 10th inning.
After closer Edwin Diaz faltered in the ninth inning, Lugo was brought in for the 10th, when New York took the lead and delivered with a quick and easy inning. He appears locked into the setup role despite a high 5.68 ERA, which is mostly the result of one poor outing.
