The long save and the short save

Since the save became an official statistic in 1969, the pitcher who has had the most saves of three innings or more has been Gene Garber, who had 52.

Going the other way, the pitcher with the most saves that were just one out was Rollie Fingers with 39.

And since most closers today get a save by pitching one complete inning and nothing else, it's not surprising that the leader in 3-out saves is Trevor Hoffman with 417.

How about most saves coming in with the bases loaded nobody out and but a one run lead?
