"Yankees manager Aaron Boone walked out to replace Fried with reliever Luke Weaver. Fried ended at 6.1 innings, allowing four hits, walking three, and K'd up six on 102 pitches. Weaver proceeded to walk Ceddanne Rafaela, allow a double to Nick Sogard, and then a 2-run RBI single from Masataka Yoshida to give the Red Sox a 2-1 lead. Weaver has been a great reliever all season long, but on Tuesday night, he couldn't get an out, and it seriously hurt his team."
"Here is what Weaver said about it postgame, via ESPN. "They put a good approach together, put the ball in play and found the holes," Weaver said postgame, describing his pitching as competitive. "I know there's a lot of disappointed people, including myself, but I just got to be better." Aaron Boone backed up Weaver as well after the game. "I'll take Weave there at the bottom of the order, especially with an out in the books," Boone said."
Anthony Volpe's solo homer in the second inning gave the Yankees a 1-0 lead. Max Fried allowed four hits, walked three, and struck out six over 6.1 innings before being removed. Aaron Boone brought in Luke Weaver, who walked Ceddanne Rafaela, yielded a double to Nick Sogard, and surrendered a two-run RBI single to Masataka Yoshida, flipping the score to a 2-1 Red Sox lead. Weaver has been effective this season but failed to record an out in the inning. Boone expressed support for the move. The Yankees will send Carlos Rodón while the Red Sox counter with Brayan Bello.
