日本投手清田行雄在转入救援角色后，于周一晚间对阵亚特兰大勇士队的比赛中取得职业生涯首场救援成功[1]。他在第九局投出无失分表现[1]，帮助大都会队以8-5击败勇士队[1]。
然而比赛尾声发生了一幕戏剧性场景。新秀队友卡森·本格接住了最后一个出局球后，误将球抛入观众席作为纪念品[1]，使得清田行雄无法保留这个象征个人里程碑的球作为纪念[1]。
大都会队目前在9场客场之旅中战绩为6-1[1]。球队的救援投手德文·威廉姆斯因伤被放入15日伤病名单[1]。清田行雄在2023赛季表现出色，战绩为12-7，防御率2.98，并入选全明星阵容[1]。他与大都会队签订了为期5年、价值7500万美元的合同[1]。
Japanese pitcher Kodai Senga earned his first career save on Monday night against the Atlanta Braves, pitching a scoreless ninth inning as the Mets defeated their opponents 8-5 [1]. The milestone moment was overshadowed by an amusing incident when rookie teammate Carson Benge, after catching the final out, tossed the ball into the stands as a souvenir, thwarting Senga's intention to keep the keepsake from his historic performance [1].
Senga's transition to closer duties came after the Mets placed closer Devin Williams on the 15-day injured list [1]. The move coincided with the team's road trip, during which they compiled a 6-1 record across nine games [1]. Senga, who signed a five-year, $75 million contract with New York, has established himself as a reliable arm since joining the franchise, posting a 12-7 record with a 2.98 ERA during the 2023 season and earning selection to the All-Star Game [1].
