INJURIES
Impressive in non-save situation Hendriks fired a scoreless ninth inning in an extra-innings win over the Astros on Friday, allowing one hit and no walks while recording two strikeouts.
Impact The closer filled a different role Friday, as he was asked to preserve a 2-2 tie in the ninth. Hendriks succeeded with relatively minimal trouble, needing just 10 pitches, nine which he threw for strikes, to retire four hitters, and recording swinging strikeouts of Yuli Gurriel and Carlos Correa to open the frame. The 31-year-old has not been scored on in six straight appearances after allowing a game-tying home run to Jason Castro on Opening Night against the Angels, but he still remains without a save on the campaign.

Collects fourth save Hendriks allowed one hit and struck out one in a scoreless inning to earn the save Thursday against the Rangers.
Impact Hendriks was called upon to protect a two-run lead in the ninth inning. After allowing a single to Shin-Soo Choo to lead off the frame, he quickly rebounded to slam the door shut via a strikeout and double play to earn his fourth save. Hendriks has pitched well to open the campaign, striking out nine across 6.1 innings and allowing just one earned run. He's among the most secure options for saves around the league.

Collects third save Hendriks allowed one hit and struck out three in a scoreless inning of work for the save in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Mariners.
Impact Hendriks struck out Evan White first before Shed Long got aboard with a single. Hendriks then retired Kyle Seager in a monster, 11-pitch at-bat and whiffed Austin Nola to complete the outing. The 31-year-old Hendriks is now 3-for-4 in save chances after a rough first outing of 2020.

Nails down second save Hendriks struck out one batter in a perfect 10th inning against the Mariners on Saturday en route to his second save of the season.
Impact Hendriks got Tim Lopes to pop out on a bunt attempt before he retired the next two batters in more traditional fashion. The closer carousel is in full swing in MLB and Hendriks did blow a save in his first appearance of the year, but he has bounced back with two straight successful conversions.

Records four-out save Hendriks was perfect over 1.1 innings with a strikeout to earn the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Angels.
Impact Hendriks blew a save Friday versus the Angels, but his second outing of the year went much smoother. The 31-year-old closer had a career year with 25 saves and a 1.80 ERA in 75 outings in 2019. He's likely to have a long leash this year as a fairly secure closer.

Falters in save chance Hendriks was charged with a blown save after allowing an earned run on two hits and two walks over one inning in an extra-inning win over the Angels on Friday. He also recorded two...
Impact Hendriks was called on as expected in the ninth with the Athletics trying to protect a 3-2 lead, but he allowed a game-tying home run to Jason Castro after getting Albert Pujols on an inning-opening groundout. Hendriks was far from smooth the rest of the frame while allowing a single and issuing two walks, but he ultimately got out of a bases-loaded jam with a strikeout of Shohei Ohtani. Hendriks and his fantasy managers will hope Friday's hiccup isn't a harbinger, considering the veteran closer blew seven of 32 save chances last season despite snagging his first career All-Star selection.
