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.
New York scored in the sev-
enth on an overthrow by
left fielder Dwight Smith Jr.,
who fell for a fake tag-up
on third base. In the ninth,
