Andres Munoz recorded the 100th save of his career on August 16, 2026, in a 3-2 win over the Houston Astros at Daikin Park. The milestone caps a rise for the right-hander who broke into the majors in 2019 and has developed into one of the game's premier relievers.
Munoz began his career with San Diego in 2019, appearing in 22 games before joining Seattle, where he has pitched since 2021. He appeared in 1 game for the Mariners in 2021, then 64 in 2022, 52 in 2023, 60 in 2024 and 64 in 2025.
Across his MLB career as a whole, Munoz has posted a 2.69 ERA with 100 saves, 426 strikeouts and an 18-28 record over 304.7 innings pitched in 311 games — figures that span both organizations.
The save came in a one-run road victory over Houston, the kind of high-leverage situation that has become the closer's trademark.
Munoz reached the mark in his 8th season since debuting in 2019, a milestone that marks eight seasons of major league service across two organizations.
