if the team is down by one to two runs it is a save situation if the closer come in to pitch for the whole inning, with one out, and with two outs, but for it to be a save wirth three runs the closer has to pitch the whole inning

A save is credited to a pitcher who fulfills the following three conditions:

1. The pitcher is the last pitcher in a game won by his team;
2. The pitcher is not the winning pitcher (for instance, if a starting pitcher throws a complete game win or, alternatively, if the pitcher gets a blown save and then his team scores a winning run while he is the pitcher of record, sometimes known as a "vulture win");
3. The pitcher fulfills at least one of the following three conditions:
a.He comes into the game with a lead of no more than three runs and pitches for at least one full inning.
b.He comes into the game with the potential tying run either on base, at bat, or on deck.
c.He pitches for at least three innings after entering the game with a lead.

If the pitcher surrenders the lead at any point, he cannot get a save, but he is the winning pitcher if his team comes back to win. No more than one save may be credited in each game.
