25 Gleyber Torres 2B

Torres went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in an 8-5 win over the Red Sox on Saturday.

Torres' fourth-inning shot off Eduardo Rodriguez not only lifted the Yankees to a three-run lead, it broke the single-season home-run record of 264 previously held by the 1997 Seattle Mariners. Torres is hitting .274 with 24 home runs and 77 RBI this season.

Torres went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run Saturday during the Yankees' 2-1 win over the Tigers.

With a runner on base in the bottom of the fifth, the candidate for AL Rookie of the Year pulled a hanging Daniel Norris breaking ball into the left-field bleachers. That would be the only run support Masahiro Tanaka would need in the victory, and it was one of only two Bombers base hits on the day. Torres, who's homered four times and plated nine runs in his last nine contests, boasts a .282/.351/.515 slash line with 22 homers, 64 RBI and 46 runs scored through 386 plate appearances.

Torres went 1-for-3 with two RBI, two walks, a stolen base and a run scored Friday against Baltimore.

Torres drove home a pair in the eighth inning on a single to right field to tie the game 4-4. Despite making an error in the series opener, the 21-year-old has been heating up at the plate recently, recording hits in six of his last seven ballgames. Torres has gone 9-for-27 with a double and three RBI over that stretch.

Torres is out of the lineup against the Rays on Wednesday.

Torres will head to the bench following five straight starts, during which he's gone just 1-for-21 (.048 average) with seven strikeouts. In his place, Ronald Torreyes will man the keystone and bat ninth.

Torres went 1-for-3 with two walks, a strikeout and a stolen base in Wednesday's win over the White Sox.

The 21-year-old flashed decent speed in the minors, swiping over 20 bases in both 2015 and 2016, but this was just his third steal of the year. The rookie has been slumping at the plate of late, going just 6-for-36 (.167) since July 29, and that stretch has dropped him to a .274/.344/.526 slash line.
