Gary Sanchez may miss a game after exiting with right calf cramp

ARLINGTON, Texas — Gary Sanchez didn’t commit to being able to play Wednesday night after leaving Tuesday’s game with a cramp in his right calf.

“I feel good but I want to see how I feel [Wednesday],’’ said Sanchez, who left the 6-4 loss in the sixth inning after feeling the cramp running from first to second.

Austin Romine replaced Sanchez and hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning that made it a two-run game.

Following the defeat, the Yankees optioned right-hander Giovanny Gallegos to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after he worked two scoreless innings and threw 24 pitches.
