            Sanchez homers in 9th, helps rally Yankees past Orioles 10-7



            By The Associated Press
            BALTIMORE  (AP)  —  Gary
            Sánchez  hit  a  three-run
            homer in the ninth inning to
            cap a New York rally fueled
            by  Baltimore  gaffes,  and
            the  Yankees  pulled  out  a
            10-7 victory Monday night.
            Gleyber  Torres  homered
            twice for the Yankees, who
            trailed 6-1 after four innings
            and 7-3 after six.
            At  that  point,  the  Orioles
            fulfilled  their  stature  as  the
            team with the worst record
            in the AL. They threw to the
            wrong  base,  missed  pop-
            ups  and  were  outscored
            7-0  over  the  final  three  in-
            nings.
