“Luke Weaver entered with the bases loaded and no one out in the seventh and struck out Amed Rosario and Trent Grisham and got Anthony Volpe to ground out.”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE

One source states Weaver entered in the seventh with one out and a 1-0 Yankees lead, whereas the claim states he entered with no one out and the bases loaded. Another source mentions a bases-loaded threat in the 7th but involves different players (Ashton Monroe/Sawyer Breitsprecher).
