Williams gave up two hits and a walk in a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday to record his fifth save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Cardinals. He struck out three.

He converted his fifth straight save chance since recovering from back trouble and making his season debut in late July, but Williams wasn't exactly sharp. The right-hander loaded the bases with one out before fanning Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Gorman to escape the jam. Williams has seen a heavy workload over the last week, getting called upon four times in seven days, so it wouldn't be a surprise if Trevor Megill handled the ninth Wednesday should Milwaukee have another late lead to protect.
