Yankees set single-season home run record with 265th of season

The New York Yankees broke the single-season record for home runs by a team in a season when Gleyber Torres launched No. 265 on Saturday.

Torres' two-run shot to right field in the fourth inning against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday broke the single-season record of 264, which was set by the Seattle Mariners in 1997.

Torres also hit the team's 20th home run from the No. 9 spot in the batting order, making them the first team in MLB history with 20 or more home runs from every spot in the lineup.
