Weathers did not factor in the decision against Miami on Saturday, hurling four scoreless innings during which he allowed two hits and three walks while striking out four. He also hit a solo home run in his only at-bat.
The left-hander returned to the mound after spending nearly two weeks on the shelf with an ankle injury. He had some control issues -- Weathers walked three and threw only 42 of 73 pitches for strikes -- but managed to keep the Marlins off the scoreboard across four innings. He helped his own cause with a third-inning solo shot -- the first long ball of his career. Weathers figures to stick in the rotation now that he is back to full health and is currently slated to make his next start at home against Colorado late next week.
