Mets' Devin Williams: Locks down first save with Mets

Williams (1) earned the save Monday against the Cardinals, tossing a perfect ninth inning with one strikeout.

Williams entered the ninth with a two-run lead and only needed 12 pitches to shut the door, sealing the win by striking out Nathan Church for the final out. After a down 2025 campaign with the Yankees in which he posted a 4.79 ERA across 62 innings, Monday was an encouraging showing as the 31-year-old looks to return to dominance in his first year with the Mets.
