AI Summary
David Bednar gave up a three-run homer in the ninth inning to take his second blown save of the season against the Mets. This marks the first time this year he has allowed more than one earned run in a game, and he has now been scored on in 10 of his 20 appearances.
Bednar allowed two singles before Tyrone Taylor crushed a curveball to left field. It's the first time this year that Bednar has allowed more than one earned run in a game, but he has now been scored on in 10 of his 20 appearances. The Yankees probably won't contemplate a closer switch just yet, but Bednar better now blow another opportunity in short order. Fernando Cruz is probably the fallback in the ninth at this point.
