Gleyber Torres’ brutal Subway Series opener prompts meeting with Aaron Boone
NY Post
After a poor game in virtually every area during what has been a poor season in virtually every area, Gleyber Torres accepted blame in a brief interview with media.
He left the visiting clubhouse at Citi Field and might have been headed home before he got sidetracked.
Manager Aaron Boone asked to talk with him.
The two had a talk after the Yankees’ 9-7 loss to the Mets in the Subway Series opener Tuesday, in which Torres had a disappointing day at the plate, in the field and running the bases.
Torres’ batting average — which sat at .267 through his first six major league seasons — is down to .215.
A 38-homer hitter in 2019 has knocked seven in his first 80 games this season.

On one level, it’s hard to shake this part of it from your mind. Think about how many times you and your best friends from college talked at the tail ends of after-hours parties about putting enough scratch together a few years after graduation to maybe, someday soon, rent a house down the Jersey shore or out in the Hamptons for a week.
