NEW YORK -- If the bitter cold wasn't enough, the Yankees' home opener also featured a rare earthquake Friday morning.

Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres was taking batting practice from bench coach Brad Ausmus on the field when the earthquake rattled the region. The Blue Jays weren't on the field yet. The players in the visitors' clubhouse didn't react to the shaking.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone, who was on the field during the quake, said he felt a vibration on his feet. He didn't realize it was an earthquake.
