In a challenging stretch for the New York Mets, closer Devin Williams faced difficulties during a recent game against the Minnesota Twins, where he allowed two runs in a 5-3 loss at Citi Field. Williams, who previously blew a save against the Chicago Cubs, has seen his ERA rise to 9.95 after allowing a total of seven earned runs in his last three outings. He struggled to control his signature changeup, throwing only one strike with it out of 21 pitches against the Twins. Manager Carlos Mendoza pointed out that Williams' command issues were detrimental, leading to walks that put him in tough situations. Despite the mounting pressure from the Mets' 12-game losing streak, Williams does not blame it for his performance, stating that he just needs to focus on executing better. He expressed hope that securing a win could help turn the team's fortunes around.
