What Yankees see from Gleyber Torres when it matters most

NEW YORK -- Watching Yankees rookie Gleyber Torres hit in the 10th inning with the game on the line Tuesday night, manager Aaron Boone noticed a couple of traits that a lot of the greats have.

Hitting after fellow Baby Bomber Miguel Andujar ripped a two-out, nobody-on double into the left-field corner off Houston Astros reliever Brad Peacock, Torres didn't like plate umpire Tripp Gibson III calling a strike on a 1-0 pitch that was borderline low.

Torres was frustrated enough that he said something to the ump, but then he immediately went back to focusing on the task at hand.
