Mets' Bullpen Stars Shine in Walk-Off Win

0:00It's April 8th, I'm Cory with the story, and this is New York Mets News today. Your AI-powered team report. The New York Mets pulled off a walkoff win against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday at City Field. They scored one run each in the first, second, eighth, and tenth innings, while Starter Freddie Peralta gave up three runs in the fifth. That extra inning victory keeps them rolling in a tight race. What sealed the deal were two big free agent pickups in the bullpen. Devin Williams tossed a scoreless night, and Luke Weaver handled the tenth with the ghost runner at second, picking up the win. Both Rye Hander's are lights out so far, combining for zero earned runs over ten innings. These guys are former Yankees from last season. Williams signed a $51 million deal with the Mets after a rough $4.79 ERA in the Bronx. Weaver inked a two-year, $22 million contract, leaving behind a $3.62 mark, but bringing serious high-leveraged chops.

1:00Manager Carlos Mendoza lit up post-game, praising their experience in big spots. That's exactly why the Mets brought them over from across town. The bullpen's clicking, without closer Edwin Diaz, wrecking second in baseball with a 1.45 ERA. With arms like these thriving early, the Mets relief crew looks prime for a deep run.
