He gets in trouble and he has a lot of weapons he can go to.Weber (1-1) allowed five runs in three innings, with all of the damage coming in his final inning. Weber allowed a leadoff single to catcher Jose Lobaton, who moved up a base on Scherzers sacrifice. Turner then smacked a two-run homer to left with an out in the third to give the Nationals a 2-1 lead.Weber yielded a double and a walk to create more trouble.
