Hendriks pitched a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 3-1 win over Baltimore.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old completed a rare feat Saturday with saves in both halves of a doubleheader, and he was able to close out another game Sunday. Hendriks is up to 13-for-15 in save chances this year with a strong 2.05 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 36:3 K:BB across 22 innings. With heavy usage over the weekend, Aaron Bummer or Garrett Crochet (hold Sunday) could get a look for a save opportunity instead of Hendriks in Monday's doubleheader versus Cleveland.

Hendriks earned the save in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Orioles after pitching a scoreless seventh inning, fanning two.

Hendriks did not allow a baserunner in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Tuesday against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
It didn't appear as if Hendriks would be called upon, as the White Sox opened up the ninth frame with a five-run lead. However, Garrett Crochet allowed each of the first three batters he faced to reach base, which caused Hendriks to be summoned from the bullpen. He proceeded to strike out all three of the batters he faced to earn his 10th save this season. Hendriks has been dominant in 19 innings, maintaining a 2.38 ERA with a 31:3 K:BB.

He entered with one out and the bases loaded, then walked Aaron Judge on five pitches, all of which were outside the strike zone. Following an initial rough patch to start the season, Hendriks has not allowed an earned run over his last 10 appearances, spanning 8.2 innings.

Hendriks allowed one hit and one walk over two-thirds of an inning in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
This was a non-save situation for Hendriks, who entered with a man on and the game tied in the ninth inning. Setup man Aaron Bummer squandered a lead in the eighth and departed after facing one batter in the ninth. Hendriks, who had been warming for a possible save opportunity before the Twins tied the game, was brought in to extend the game into extra frames. It was his first time pitching in five days.
