Gleyber Torres hit a tiebreaking double with two outs in the eighth inning, Gary Sanchez hit a long two-run homer later in the inning and the New York Yankees moved back into the American League’s second wild-card spot with a 7-3 victory over the visiting Texas Rangers Wednesday night.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The Yankees (86-67) won their third straight after losing 15 of 22 and aplikasi dewadominoqq<\/a> moved a half-game ahead of the Toronto Blue Jays for the second wild card.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Their lead may be short-lived as Toronto visits Minnesota to open a four-game series Thursday before the Yankees start a three-game series Friday at Fenway Park against the wild card-leading Boston Red Sox.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Gallo started the rally with a bloop double off Spencer Patton (1-2) into no-man’s land in left field as the Rangers were shifted over against their former slugger.<\/p>\n

On the next pitch, Torres ripped a double down the right field line that went to the fence to easily score Gallo.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

One pitch later, Torres gave the Yankees a 5-3 lead when he slid head-first into the plate as second baseman Yonny Hernandez booted an infield single by Gio Urshela.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Hernandez was also charged with an error as Torres got his left hand slightly ahead of the tag and the original call by plate umpire Jeremie Rehak was upheld following a replay review.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Three pitches later, Sanchez reached Monument Park beyond the center field fence for his 23rd homer to make it 7-3.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Before New York’s comeback, Kyle Higashioka hit a two-run double in the fifth and Aaron Judge scored the tying run in the sixth on a wild pitch<\/a> by Dennis Santana.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Willie Calhoun, Brock Holt and, Isiah Kiner-Falefa hit RBI singles off New York’s Corey Kluber but Texas (55-97) lost for the eighth time in 10 games.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Kluber, who no-hit the Rangers May 19 in Texas, allowed three runs on eight hits in 4 1\/3 innings.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

He struck out four and walked none before the Yankees used four relievers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

After Wandy Peralta and Clay Holmes followed Kluber, Chad Green (9-7) pitched a scoreless eighth that was aided by Sanchez throwing out Adolis Garcia trying to steal second.<\/p>\n

Aroldis Chapman finished up in a non-save situation.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Texas left-hander Taylor Hearn allowed three runs on four hits in 5 1\/3 innings. He struck out three and walked four.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
