The Yankees were built to bludgeon opponents with three-run homers, but those have been difficult to come by of late. A different approach delivered rewards on Tuesday night, as early small ball helped to snap the Yanks’ four-game slide with an 8-4 victory over the Twins at Target Field.
Tyler Wade scored the go-ahead run on a fielder’s choice in the eighth inning, forcing a throw from second baseman Jorge Polanco in a frame set up by a sacrifice bunt.
