Gleyber Torres leads Yankees to 5-1 win and sweep of Twins, advance to the ALC Series Globe_Sports

New York Yankees' Gleyber Torres celebrates as he runs the bases after hitting a home run during the second inning in Game 3 of a baseball American League Division Series against the Minnesota Twins in Minneapolis.

“He played so well in this series, and then today, I think, just continued to show the world just how good a player he is on both sides of the ball,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. Minnesota has lost 16 consecutive post-season games, tying the North American major sports record held by the Chicago Blackhawks in the NHL from 1975-79.

The energy hardly ever deflated, even when the 22-year-old Torres became the fifth-youngest Yankees player to register a post-season homer in when he took Twins starter Jake Odorizzi deep. The ball barely cleared the dark green wall in left-centre.
