The Caraqueño with 17 homers left behind the Aragonese Jesús AguilarGleyber-Torres.jpg

UN- Caracas-born Gleyber Torres fired his 16th and 17th home runs of the season in a 7-5 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday and was once again face to face with a potential destination: the story.

The waiter of the Yankees happened to be the Creole with more homers in his first season as a starter in the Major Leagues, surpassing with his performance the digit that the Aragonese Jesus Aguilar imposed for a native in the last harvest (16), but the novelty It does not end there.

Each of the footsteps has great significance for "the child prodigy of New York."

The Caracas, 21 years and 232 days, is the second player of the Mules to patent at least two games of multiple homers before turning 22, along with Joe DiMaggio, who had three in 1936.

Torres, in turn, also figures as the eighth major league player and first "Yankee," who hits at least 17 homers in the first 70 games of his career before changing his current age. The rookie is giving the time in the Majors.
