The requirements for a reliever to record a save are he must be the last pitcher in the game and he must be put in the game with his team winning by 3 runs or the tying or go-ahead run has to be either on base, at-bat or on deck or a reliever can come in and pitch the last 3 innings regardless of the score as long as his team is winning.
Generally, the pitcher who last pitched for the winning team right before the winning team took the lead for good, except that the starting pitcher cannot get credited for a win unless he pitches at least 5 innings (and his team takes the lead for good).
