Earns save King recorded his first save of the season, pitching one inning and striking out one in a 3-0 win Thursday over Toronto.

Impact King entered the game with no outs and the bases loaded, following three consecutive walks by Aroldis Chapman. The 26-year-old needed just five pitches to get out of the jam as he struck out George Springer and Bo Bichette lined into a game-ending double-play. It was the first career save for King. He is fairly far down the depth chart in the Yankees bullpen and is unlikely to get many more save opportunities anytime soon.

Picks up Opening Day win King (1-0) allowed an unearned run on a hit and a walk while striking out three in two innings to earn the win Friday against the Red Sox.

Impact King entered Friday's matchup in the 10th inning and allowed the runner on second base to come across, but he remained in the game after the Yankees tied it up in the bottom half of the inning. He struck out two of the three batters he faced in the top of the 11th and was rewarded with his fourth career win. In spite of Friday's outing, the 26-year-old is expected to serve mainly in low-leverage situations in 2022.

King has made three appearances in Grapefruit League play, allowing five runs and yielding three homers over seven frames.

Notches first win of campaign King (1-4) earned the win over Toronto on Tuesday, pitching 2.2 innings and allowing one run on two hits and one walk while striking out one.

Impact Yankees starter Jameson Taillon aggravated his right ankle injury in the third frame, resulting in an early entrance for King. The right-handed reliever allowed a run in the fourth inning but otherwise kept the Blue Jays off the scoreboard, and he was ultimately credited with the win. Since returning from the 60-day IL on Sept. 10, King has allowed only two runs while posting a 13:2 K:BB across 13.1 innings.
