Gleyber Torres, Domingo German power Yankees over Rays | Rapid reaction

THURSDAY -- Gleyber Torres crossed home plate and put a finger over his lips.

Shut up, he was telling someone.

Fine. There aren't many new ways to describe what he's doing anyway.

Torres' towering three-run home run put the Yankees ahead for good in the fifth inning of a 4-3 win over the Rays at Yankee Stadium on Thursday night.

It was another highlight in a rookie season bursting at its seams with them.

It was another moment Torres proved he should not just be in the American League Rookie of the Year conversation, but maybe for MVP, too, if he keeps this up.
