Records fourth save Treinen saved Thursday's 4-1 triumph against the Mets, striking out all three batters he faced in the ninth.

Impact With closer Kenley Jansen having pitched on both Monday and Tuesday and with a three-run lead, manager Dave Roberts opted to deploy his setup man, and Treinen delivered with a seamless ninth inning. The 33-year-old righty needed just 13 pitches to sit down the heart of New York's order and record his first save since June 15 and dropped his ERA to 1.84.

Wins with multi-inning effort Treinen (3-5) won Monday's 2-1 victory over Pittsburgh, recording two strikeouts in 1.1 innings.

Impact Treinen entered with two outs and the bases loaded in the seventh and induced a Colin Moran groundout on just one pitch to neutralize the threat. He then stayed in for the eighth and fell in line for the win once Los Angeles took the lead in the bottom of the inning. The victory was the reliever's first since late June, and he's yet to permit a run in seven August innings.

Impact The right-hander breezed through a scoreless frame to set up the save for closer Kenley Jansen. Treinen retired the side on only eight pitches, seven of which were strikes.

Takes tough loss in 10th Treinen (2-4) took the loss Tuesday against the Marlins after allowing one run (unearned) with no hits or walks while striking out one.

Impact Treinen finished the final out of the ninth inning during a 1-1 tie and re-entered in the 10th. Unfortunately a wild pitch allowed the extra-inning baserunner, Starling Marte, to eventually score after a throwing error by catcher Will Smith at third base. It was a messy ending to the game during an otherwise strong outing by Treinen. The right-hander has pitched well in the setup role this season, compiling a 2.86 ERA and 1.13 WHIP while finding himself in a three-way tie for the most holds in the league with 17 overall.

Notches 16th hold Treinen pitched a perfect inning during which he struck out one to earn the hold against Washington on Saturday.

Impact Treinen has consistently and effectively served as a bridge to closer Kenley Jansen this season, as he is tied with teammate Victor Gonzalez for third in the league with 16 holds. The right-hander had no problem handling the Nationals while pitching with a one-run, eighth-inning lead Saturday, setting down the side in order on 16 pitches. Treinen holds a 3.03 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 38:10 K:BB across 32.2 innings this season.

Gets win Friday Treinen (2-3) pitched 1.2 scoreless innings Friday against the Cubs. He allowed one hit and struck out two as he picked up his second win of the year.

Impact Treinen entered with two men on and one out in the seventh and allowed the Cubs to tie up the game on a sacrifice fly by Joc Pederson. The 32-year-old then allowed Javier Baez to lead off the eighth with a single but struck out Anthony Rizzo and Wilson Contreras before getting Eric Sogard to line out to end the inning. Treinen has had a nice year after showing some signs of regression over the last two seasons. He owns a 3.23 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 36:9 K:BB as one of the Dodgers' top arms in the bullpen.

Surrenders two in loss Treinen (1-3) took the loss in a 5-3 defeat at the hands of San Diego, allowing two runs on two hits with a strikeout in one inning Wednesday.

Impact Treinen took over for starter Trevor Bauer in the seventh and retired three straight Padres but encountered trouble when he came back out for the eighth and allowed two hits before being removed. Victor Gonzalez entered and allowed both inherited runners to score which gave Treinen the loss. The earned runs snapped a five-inning scoreless stretch for Treinen that included five strikeouts with only two baserunners allowed. The veteran righty carries a 3.41 ERA and 1.21 WHIP moving forward.

Earns save Tuesday Treinen earned his third save of the year Tuesday night against the Phillies after pitching a scoreless ninth while striking out a batter.

Impact Treinen was called upon to pitch the ninth with Kenley Jansen unavailable after closing out the previous two games. He got the first two hitters out and then managed to work around an Albert Pujols fielding error by striking out J.T. Realmuto to end the game. Treinen is one of the premier setup pitchers in the game, as he is tied for second with 14 holds and tends to pick up the occasional save when Jansen is unavailable or off his game.
