New York Yankees offense so dominant the Twins won’t use real pitchers

What a fantastic day of New York Yankees baseball.

Giancarlo Stanton dominated, Gleyber Torres got his first hit, Didi Gregorius hit a grand slam, but most importantly, the Minnesota Twins used a position player as a pitcher.

Centerfielder Ryan LaMarre entered the game in the eighth inning and gave up a home run to Tyler Austin in 0.2 innings of work.

Position player pitching! The #Twins are calling on centerfielder Ryan LaMarre with one out in the eighth inning.

If you think there’s anything better in the game of baseball than a team being forced to put a position player on the mound, you are 10,000 percent wrong.
