The right-hander pitched into the eighth inning of the Mets' 4-3 win in the doubleheader opener.
Megill, whose previous high was seven innings against the Yankees in September 2021, gave up four hits and struck out seven. He threw a handful of split-fingered fastballs he learned from the Mets' Rookie of the Year contender, using the pitch to strike out Cristian Pache in the third and retire Brandon Marsh on a grounder in the fifth.
"Give him another pitch on the advance scouting report next year that they have to prepare for," Mets manager Buck Showalter said. Pete Alonso and Brett Baty each had RBIs in the first, when Francisco Lindor raced home on a wild pitch.Walker, in line to start a Game 3 of an NL Wild Card series on Thursday, went seven innings and finished the season with a career-high 172 2/3 innings and 31 starts. He had a 7.05 first-inning ERA but a 3.81 in the subsequent innings.
