Gets tough blown save Weaver was saddled with a blown save Wednesday against the Dodgers, letting two inherited runners score while permitting one hit and one walk over 1.1 frames. Impact Weaver was put into an impossible situation, taking over for Tommy Kahnle in the top of the eighth inning after Kahnle had loaded the bases with no one out. He didn't permit a hit or a walk in the frame, but a pair of sac flies turned a one-run Yankees lead to a one-run deficit. Weaver returned for the ninth inning and was pulled with one out and two runners on before Mark Leiter came on to escape the jam. The Yankees have a $2.5 million club option on Weaver for 2025, which they will undoubtedly pick up. He could open next season as the club's closer after finishing this season in the role.
