The 33-year-old right-hander has now strung together two scoreless appearances in a row after giving up runs in three straight. Hendricks' 20 saves ties him for ninth best in the majors and he will likely see whatever remaining save opportunities the White Sox can produce down the stretch.

EDGE Analysis
