Henriquez allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits and no walks while striking out one over 1.1 innings to earn the save in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Rockies.
Henriquez entered the game with two outs in the eighth inning after Michael Petersen let Colorado get on the board. In the ninth, Henriquez also ran into some trouble, but he had just enough wiggle room to close out his first save since July 22. It appears the Marlins simply wanted to get the right-hander some work, as nominal top ninth-inning option Calvin Faucher should have been available Tuesday. Henriquez has mostly worked as a setup man this year, earning seven saves and 24 holds while pitching to a 2.43 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 91:24 K:BB over 66.2 innings. Prior to this game, he had not allowed an earned run since July 27 versus the Brewers.
Henriquez blew the save Sunday against Milwaukee, allowing one run on two hits and a walk over one inning. He struck out one.
Henriquez took the mound for the eighth inning and yielded ground-rule doubles to Jackson Chourio and Andrew Vaughn, the second of which plated the game-tying run. Henriquez and Calvin Faucher have been the primary members of Miami's closing committee of late, and it doesn't appear that either has pulled ahead. Henriquez has allowed a run in three of his last four appearances, and his ERA stands at 3.06 after 50 innings this season.

Marlins' Ronny Henriquez: Scrapes by with save
Rotowire
Henriquez picked up the save Tuesday against the Padres, allowing two runs on two hits and one walk with one strikeout across one inning.
Henriquez inherited a three-run lead in the top of the ninth and nearly squandered the advantage by allowing a leadoff walk and back-to-back doubles that cut the the Padres' deficit to one. However, he rebounded and retired the next three batters he faced to notch his sixth save of the campaign. Henriquez and Calvin Faucher have been battling for closer duties, but neither has done enough to win the job at this point. In his last 10.1 innings, Henriquez has allowed four runs and generated a 15:4 K:BB.
Henriquez (5-1) picked up the win Saturday over the Brewers, striking out two in a perfect eighth inning.
The right-hander breezed through the middle of Milwaukee's order on eight pitches (seven strikes) before Miami broke a 2-2 tie in the bottom of the frame. Henriquez has emerged as the Marlins' top high-leverage option, and over his last 11 appearances he's collected two wins, two holds and four saves with a 0.84 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 16:2 K:BB in 10.2 innings.

Rotowire
Henriquez earned the save in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Twins, striking out one batter in a perfect ninth inning.
Henriquez was brought in to protect the Marlins' three-run lead, and he needed 15 pitches (11 strikes) to get the job done.

Henriquez has yielded just one earned run over his last 10 outings, which has brought him down to a 2.79 ERA and 1.19 WHIP across 42 innings with 58 strikeouts this season.

Marlins' Ronny Henriquez: Secures third save
Rotowire
Henriquez struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.
Calvin Faucher was brought in to face the top of Arizona's order in the eighth inning and nearly made a disaster of it. He got through the frame, and Henriquez was able to have a much less dramatic ninth for his third save of the year, two of which he's earned in his last five outings. Henriquez has added 11 holds while pitching to a 2.93 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 55:16 K:BB through 40 innings this season. Based on Sunday's usage pattern, Faucher, who has been the closer lately, appears to be set to enter games in the the most high-leverage moments, and that could give Henriquez some chances at ancillary saves. However, Miami is 37-45 on the year, and the team's relievers have combined for just 18 saves, so there may not be a lot of chances to go around.
Henriquez earned the save in Sunday's 5-3 win over Atlanta, allowing one hit while striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning.
Henriquez allowed a leadoff single to Alex Verdugo to lead off the ninth, though he got Michael Harris to ground into a double play before striking out Sean Murphy to close out his second save this season. The Marlins have taken a committee approach to the ninth inning this year, and Henriquez has become one of their more trusted relief options. The 25-year-old right-hander has posted a 3.00 ERA with a 1.33 WHIP and 48:16 K:BB across 36 innings this year.
Henriquez (3-1) was charged with a blown save but picked up the win Wednesday against the Padres, allowing two runs on one hit and one walk over two innings. He struck out three.
The right-hander was called in to protect a 7-6 lead in the seventh inning but served up a two-run homer to Gavin Sheets, only for the Marlins to strike back for three runs in the top of the eighth. Calvin Faucher ended up working the ninth for the save, but Henriquez may be Miami's top high-leverage option at the moment. Wednesday's homer was the first on his ledger since April 27, while the earned runs were the first he'd given up since April 28. Through 12 appearances in May, Henriquez sports a 1.38 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 20:4 K:BB in 13 innings while collecting two wins, two holds and his first career save.
