Devin Williams gets a standing ovation from Yankees fans

34 comments

1. Much deserved after all he’s been through and with the way he’s been pitching of late. 

2. After that start to the season, he’s proven to be the big asset we expected him to be. 

3. I hope he gets a good contract, just not with us lol

4. Imagine telling someone a month ago Devin Williams would be getting standing ovations in the playoffs at Yankee Stadium

5. well deserved, hell yeah brother. that’s resilience.

6. My god what a turnaround

7. We can’t go back and get those blown saves back so we might as well enjoy moments like this.

8. Devin, if you wanna come back on a 1 year deal then you’d be welcomed back

9. How quickly things change. Hopefully Williams didn’t take the boos too literally. Fans are fickle they are your greatest supporters when you are doing well and then turn on a dime when you aren’t! Especially in NY!

10. Well deserved

11. Yeah we were all very happy. Great outting.

12. I trust him.

13. He looked around like, “So this is what they do when you aren’t dog shit”.

14. Post-season is all we care about, keep it going D-will

16. Good for him that’s gotta feel amazing after all the ups and downs this season

17. This was not on my bingo card

18. Never imagined we’d get here

19. That’s a post title I never thought I’d see

20. He has been amazing this postseason and the last month. I don’t care what happen in April!

21. Williams turned into 2024 Weaver, Weaver turned into 2024 Clay Holmes

22. If his value tanked so much because of how shit the start/most of the season are, I won’t be opposed to bringing him back at a certain point.

23. When the world needed him most… he came through 🥲

24. 🫡

25. I’ve been critical of Devin Williams all season, but what’s important is he delivered in the moment we needed him most. Well done, we all needed this. Himself included.

26. Finally getting over that hump. When a guy comes to town and doesn’t perform it’s gotta feel not like a light switch being switched, but like getting the current run through you when things finally go right

27. I’m here for his redemption arc. If him, Doval and Bednar can pitch like they are capable of and the starters could stop imploding this team can still reach its goals.

28. That is an example of the quote from Jeter, “Yankee fans boo because they want to cheer.”

29. He could of kept him in to finish that inning from my watch he was doing his job

30. He could have kept him in to finish that inning from my watch he was doing his job. Great mound work today dev 👏

31. Talking about turning things around…this guy is looking like the guy we thought we were getting. Since a month ago something changed. He’s looking like his old self pre-yankees

    So at least we have two high level relievers. Problem is our starting pitching is suddenly bad and our offense will have to keep raking

32. Because in Yankee Stadium, the only thing that matters is the postseason.

33. Good on Devin. He fucking earned that. He turned himself around and turned around the respect and trust of myself and many other fans. Boone too.

34. How can you not be romantic about baseball.
