Gleyber Torres' sacrifice fly puts the Yankees on the board
Every player has their rough patches and Gleyber Torres seems to be going through one. Torres is already making up for his mishaps as he helped the Yankees get on board with a sacrifice fly.
During the bottom of the first inning, Torres hit a high-fly ball off Cade Povich that sent Juan Soto to home plate. Torres did his part, but fans can only hope for him to avoid such mishaps in the future.
In Cole's first start of the season, the Yankees ace was afforded five innings by manager Aaron Boone. He allowed two earned runs on three hits while striking out five hitters.
