As the Yankees came back from a 6-1 deficit to tie the Orioles, 7-7, they needed one more hero. Gary Sanchez was the man who provided, both the go-ahead home run in the ninth inning and the social media-worthy moment. Earlier in the game, the Orioles announcers got tired of another Yankee beating up on Baltimore. Elsewhere, Vladimir Guerrero gives another sweet tribute to his son and the Rangers shout out Josh Hamilton as he’s set to go into the team’s Hall of Fame.
One great thing about Gary Sanchez is all the home runs. Another is that his name is conducive to a lot of puns.
One of the most endearing things about the start to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s career has been the support of his dad. Here’s the translation of this tweet: Each sacrifice has its reward, this is the first achievement of many in your career. Congratulations my son.
Cada sacrificio tiene su recompensa, este es el primer logro de muchos en tu carrera. Felicidades mi hijo❤️#VG27 https://t.co/V0V0TQ1iiD

Gleyber Torres rakes against just about everyone, but the Orioles announcers are particularly tired of him picking on Baltimore. OK, so everyone picks on Baltimore. Maybe Torres slugging against the O’s is just a natural state of being.
You’ll want the sound on for this.
Baltimore’s announcers have had enough of Gleyber Torres’ raking. 😂 pic.twitter.com/77Z39oU3fM

For a couple of years, Josh Hamilton was among the very best players in baseball. That those years came in a Rangers uniform won’t soon be forgotten deep in the heart of Texas.

Chris Paddack is filthy. There’s just no other way to put it.
Just call Chris Paddack from another dimension, new galaxy, because this pitch is Hello Nasty. https://t.co/b5Ftcemz3W via @Cut4 pic.twitter.com/5xHUFtvGlg
