NEW YORK — On the surface, it merely was a split doubleheader on a long, cold, windy Sunday in early May.
But Rangers manager Chris Woodward managed to make it a memorable day at Yankee Stadium with a remark that will not soon be forgotten by Yankees fans.
After Gleyber Torres led off the ninth inning of Game 1 with a walk-off home run to rightfield for a 2-1 victory, Woodward said between games that Torres’ shot would have been “an easy out in 99% of ballparks.”
