NEW YORK - The Yankees' big bats had a breakout night in the Bronx on Monday, headlined by a series of home runs from the likes of vets Giancarlo Stanton and Didi Gregorius, and fresher faces like Tyler Austin and Miguel Andujar.
Homers, including Andujar's, which made history, weren't the only types of hits that were en vogue in the Yankees' 14-1 win over the Minnesota Twins, a team they have owned recently at Yankee Stadium. Singles were, too.
Perhaps no one-base hit Monday was as memorable as the eighth-inning liner up the middle that gave 21-year-old Gleyber Torres his first major league hit.
