Yankees gush over Gleyber Torres, who's making history, by the way

NEW YORK -- Neil Walker watched Gleyber Torres take his second base job.

Still, when asked how impressive the Yankees' top prospect has been since getting called up just two weeks ago, Walker couldn't help but praise on the 21-year-old.

"It's very rare," Walker said of Torres' poise following Torres' walk-off, three-run homer in a 7-4 victory over the Indians at Yankee Stadium on Sunday.

"He stepped into this role and he's kind of taken off with it and he's really impressive."

Before the game, manager Aaron Boone was asked what's stood out most about Torres in his debut.
