Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he believed he needed to remove Gleyber Torres from Friday night's game after a lack of hustle turned a likely double into a long single.
What were the White Sox thinking? Are the Dodgers the new team to beat? Making sense of the MLB trade deadlineESPN baseball reporter.

After the game, Torres said he was surprised by Boone's move but added that the manager made"the right decision." "I just felt like I needed to in that spot," Boone said."I'm not going to get too down the rabbit hole of making judgments on this one. I just felt like, in that moment, I needed to do that. Simple is that. Is what it is. It's over with. You got to move on. He and I have spoken and hopefully this is a great learning moment for all of us.
"Big time," Judge said."He could've hid from it. He could've, after the game was over, showered, been out of here and we'll see you at 10 o'clock tomorrow. But he came back out. He was there. He was cheering. He was high-fiving guys. He's a part of this team, he's a big part of this team."
