HIGH SCHOOL. MY GRANDSON WAS THE STARTING PITCHER.HE PITCHED 2 INNINGS,THE SCORE WAS 6-2. THE RELEIF PITCHER PITCHED 2 AND 2/3 INNINGS GIVING UP 6 RUNS. ANOTHER RELEIF PITCHER PITCHED 1/3 INNING GIVING UP 4 RUNS.FINALLY THE CLOSING PITCHER PITCHED 2AND 2/3 INNINGS GIVING UP 1 RUN.THE FINAL SCORE WAS 15-14 AND THE LEAD NEVER CHANGED.WE WON 15-14. I HOPE THIS IS ENOUGH INFORMATION TO FIGURE THIS OUT. THANKS A BUNCH FOR ALL YOU DO.

It looks like your son cannot be the winning pitcher but it's up to the scorer to decide which reliever can. To be credited with a save a pitcher must meet all three of: He is the last pitcher in a game won by his team. He is not the winning pitcher; and He meets at least one of: He enters the game with a lead of not more than three runs and pitches at least on inning;or He enters the game regardless of the count on the batter with the potential tying run either on base, at bat or on deck; or He pitches effectively for at least three innings. I think the save will be determined by the score depending on the flow of your game. Hope this helps.
