New York Yankees closer Devin Williams has a 11.25 ERA this season after his blown save against the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday night.

With the Yankees leading, 2-1, Williams surrendered a leadoff hit to George Springer, then hit Andres Gimenez in the thigh with a fastball. The next batter, Alejandro Kirk, hammered a double over the head of Trent Grishman ( (to where??)) that scored both runners. That brought an end to Williams’ outing as he was replaced by Mark Leiter Jr.

In contrast, as of April 26, 2025, Williams has an ERA of 11.25 over 10 appearances, allowing 10 earned runs in just 8 innings pitched. This marks his most challenging start to a season, significantly higher than his previous early-season performances.​
