Weber earned a 10th-inning save against Cincinnati on Saturday, striking out one batter in a perfect frame.
The Yankees scored three runs in the top of the 10th, then turned to Weber to close things out in the bottom of the frame. He needed just 10 pitches to do so, throwing seven strikes and retiring the side in order. The save was Weber's first this season and second in his career. Though New York's closer situation remains unsettled, Weber isn't expected to see many additional chances in that role.

Yankees' Ryan Weber: Notches three-inning save
Rotowire
Weber earned the save over the Red Sox on Saturday, pitching three scoreless innings during which he allowed one hit and one walk while striking out one batter.
Weber made his first big-league appearance since July 2 -- and just his third in the majors this season -- and ended up closing out the game after Jameson Taillon covered the first six innings. Weber came in with the Yankees holding a nine-run lead, so he was credited with his first career big-league save despite facing very little stress. He's allowed only one earned run over 7.2 innings for New York this season.

Yankees' Ryan Weber: Moves up to majors
Rotowire
The Yankees selected Weber's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.
He'll be joining the 40-man and 26-man rosters as a replacement for Luis Severino, who was scratched ahead of his scheduled start Thursday against the Rays and placed on the COVID-19-related injured list. Clarke Schmidt is getting the spot start in Severino's stead, but because he hasn't worked more than 3.1 innings in any of his appearances in the majors or minors this season, he may not be able to work deep into the outing. With that in mind, Weber -- who covered 4.2 innings in his most recent outing for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on June 9 -- could end up serving as a primary pitcher behind Schmidt.

Yankees' Ryan Weber: Makes return from IL
Rotowire
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre reinstated Weber from its 7-day injured list Wednesday, with the right-hander pitching two innings and giving up two runs (one earned) on two hits and no walks in his return to the rotation Friday against Syracuse.
Weber was sidelined for just over three weeks due to COVID-19-related protocols, so he presumably tested positive for the virus. Due to the long layoff, Weber was eased back into the rotation with a lighter workload than usual, but he should increase his pitch count in his subsequent outings.
