Devin Williams, pitching for the Yankees against the Mets, demonstrated resilience by delivering a perfect eighth inning. Having faced struggles earlier in the season and being removed from the closer's role, he struck out the side, including Mets' slugger Pete Alonso, whom he faced previously in a crucial playoff game. This performance marked a turning point in his role with the Yankees, highlighting his improvement in a setup position. Notably, his coach Aaron Boone praised his execution and regained form, as Williams has remained unscored upon in seven of his last eight outings, bolstering the team's pitching depth.
On Friday, Williams continued his comeback after being yanked from the closer's role following his disastrous start with the Yankees, pitching a perfect eighth inning in a 6-2 win over the Mets.
