Williams picked up the save in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Reds. He allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and no walks while striking out two over one inning.
Williams entered in the ninth inning up by three runs and almost blew the save after allowing the first three batters to reach base. A leadoff double preceded an infield single and an error by Jace Peterson to score one run. Williams then struck out Kyle Farmer but surrendered a sacrifice fly off the bat of TJ Friedl to reduce the lead to one before striking out Jonathan India to end the game and earn the save. The Brewers' closer is now 6-for-7 in save opportunities since taking over the role after Josh Hader was traded Aug. 1.
