The New York Yankees are a walking game of “Operation” early on, but don’t tell that to Gleyber Torres.
The second-year second baseman was the star of Thursday’s 8-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles. Torres had his first career four-hit game, slugging two home runs along with a double and a single. Torres also drove in four of the Yankees’ eight runs.
And just like Jabba the Hutt at an all-you-can-eat buffet, this Yankees fan wants more. Torres is such a great hitter, his continuing to succeed at bat could help New York shake off this early slump and put him in the spotlight even more.
