ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Gary Sanchez’s 10th-inning, three-run blast in the Yankees’ 8-4 win over the Rays on Thursday night was measured at 461 feet.
That is the fourth-longest homer by a Yankee this season and Sanchez has three of them.
His homer on June 21 against Houston was measured at 481 feet. On April 27 at San Francisco, Sanchez hit a homer that traveled 467 feet. Luke Voit hit a 470-foot homer May 25 at Kansas City.
Aaron Judge was given a scheduled day off Thursday, with Mike Tauchman starting in right field for the 10th time this season.
