Red Sox's Greg Weissert: Squanders save chance
Weissert (4-4) took the loss and blew a save during Sunday's game against Miami, allowing two runs on two hits with no strikeouts over one-third of an inning.
The Red Sox called upon Weissert in the ninth inning Sunday, as closer Aroldis Chapman got the day off after pitching in back-to-back games. Weissert inherited a one-run lead, but he surrendered a leadoff homer to Dane Myers on his second pitch of the inning. The 30-year-old reliever departed the contest with a runner on first in favor of Steven Matz, who yielded a go-ahead two-run homer to the first batter he faced. Weissert has now blown seven of his 10 save chances, and he yielded multiple runs in an outing Sunday for the first time since July 2.

Red Sox's Greg Weissert: Notches another save
Weissert walked one in a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday to record his third save of the season in a 3-1 win over the Mariners.
All three of the right-hander's saves have come since June 10, but the first two opportunities arose while Aroldis Chapman was getting a rest due to a heavy workload. That wasn't the case Wednesday -- Chapman pitched the eighth inning and faced the top of the Seattle order, while Weissert was called on to retire the 4-5-6 hitters for the M's and got the job done thanks to a double-play grounder from Dominic Canzone. Weissert seems to have earned the trust of manager Alex Cora, and over his last 15.2 innings dating back to May 16, the 30-year-old reliever has a 1.72 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 13:4 K:BB with a win and eight holds in addition to his recent batch of saves.

Red Sox's Greg Weissert: Picks up second save
Weissert notched a save against the Yankees on Saturday, allowing one run on two hits in one inning.
Primary closer Aroldis Chapman had pitched five of the previous seven days, so Red Sox manager Alex Cora held him out. That led to Weissert -- who picked up his first save of the season Tuesday -- getting his second ninth-inning opportunity of the week. The save didn't come easily, as the right-hander allowed a run before the potential tying run got to second base with two outs. However, he was able to retire Austin Wells on a flyout to end the game. There probably won't be many weeks in which Weissert gets multiple save chances, but he appears to be a trusted option on occasions when Chapman is unavailable, especially while top setup man Justin Slaten remains on the IL with a shoulder injury.
