His lone blown save came way back on April 7 in his third appearance of the year.

Karinchak earned the save Sunday against the Pirates after tossing a scoreless ninth inning, walking one and striking out one.

EDGE Analysis

Karinchak has gone 8-for-9 on save chances this season, but he had to work quite a lot to get the job done in this one -- he needed 23 pitches to close things out and only 13 of those were for strikes. The right-hander has notched his eight saves on a row and owns a 2.84 ERA on the season.

Karinchak (4-2) struck out the side in a perfect inning, and he was credited with the win Tuesday versus Baltimore.

EDGE Analysis

Starter Cal Quantrill lasted only four innings, and Karinchak was awarded the win as the most effective reliever in the contest. The right-hander has strung together 4.2 scoreless innings on the heels of a skid that saw him allow nine runs (eight earned) over four innings. For the year, Karinchak owns a 2.45 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 53:14 K:BB across 29.1 innings. He's 7-for-8 in save chances with six holds.

Karinchak (3-2) earned the win in relief Saturday against the Mariners after tossing a scoreless inning, fanning two.

EDGE Analysis

Karinchak entered the game in the 10th inning after Cleveland scored three runs in the bottom of the ninth, and he carried that momentum into the mound -- he tossed eight of his 13 pitches for strikes and retired the side in order despite having a runner at second the whole time due to the new extra-innings rule. The right-hander has posted three straight scoreless outings and lowered his ERA to 2.67 as a result.

Karinchak earned the save Tuesday against the White Sox despite giving up two runs on four hits with one strikeout and one walk during the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander only picked up the save since he was staked a three-run lead, and he escaped by inducing a bases-loaded groundout. Karinchak was electric through his first 21 outings of the season with a 0.44 ERA, 0.48 WHIP and 38:7 K:BB, but he's now surrendered nine runs (seven earned) on nine hits with a 6:6 K:BB across his past five appearances.

After allowing just one run in his first 21 appearances, Karinchak has now allowed seven runs (five earned) over his last four games. His ERA is up to 2.28 in 23.2 innings.

Karinchak earned the save Tuesday after tossing a scoreless inning against the Tigers. He allowed one hit and a walk while striking out one.

EDGE Analysis

It wasn't the sharpest outing for the right-hander, who actually allowed an inherited runner to score after starting pitcher Aaron Civale was pulled in the ninth. Regardless, Karinchak worked out of a bases-loaded jam to slam the door on Detroit, picking up his sixth save of the year. While he doesn't hold the closer title in Cleveland, the 25-year-old has posted spectacular numbers otherwise, compiling a 1.25 ERA, 0.69 WHIP and 39:10 K:BB across 21.2 innings of work.

Karinchak (2-1) was tagged with the loss Sunday against the Blue Jays after allowing three runs (two earned) on one hit and a walk. He didn't record a single out before leaving the game.

EDGE Analysis

Karinchak opened the 10th inning with the game tied at 5-5, but he was absolutely woeful and couldn't retire a single batter before stepping off the mound. He ended a streak of seven straight scoreless appearances, but he still owns a 2.70 ERA across 10 innings in the current month.

Karinchak (2-0) pitched 1.1 scoreless innings and struck out two to earn the extra-inning win over Minnesota on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander was called upon for the last out of the ninth inning in a tied game. Cleveland couldn't win it in the bottom of the ninth, but Karinchak stymied Minnesota in the 10th. Cesar Hernandez then launched a walkoff two-run home run to give Karinchak his second win of the season. The 25-year-old reliever has added five saves, five holds, a 0.44 ERA, 0.48 WHIP and 38:7 K:BB across 20.2 innings this season as a dominant option at the back of Cleveland's bullpen.

Karinchak earned his fifth save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Angels on Wednesday after throwing a hitless ninth while walking a batter and striking out two.

EDGE Analysis

Karinchak was able to record two quick outs before walking Justin Upton, but he struck out Jose Rojas to end the game. Cleveland's closer situation is something worth paying attention to, as Emmanuel Clase still leads the team with seven saves and has been very good for a majority of the season but Karinchak has now tallied back-to-back saves.
