Yankees C.C. Sabathia to IL while Gleyber Torres owns Orioles

As Yankees fans, the 2019 season has taught us to take the good with the bad. So, yes, the Bombers defeated the Orioles 7-5 on Wednesday to stay two games ahead of the Rays for first place in the AL East (31-17).

Buoyed by five home runs, including two by Gleyber Torres, and Gary Sanchez’s team-leading 15th long ball, the Yanks continue to beat the teams they should.

As for Torres, after a slow start to the season, the 22-year-old now has a total of 12 home runs — 10 of which have come against the Orioles in 11 games.
