NEW YORK (AP) – Gary Sánchez lined a winning single in the 10th inning, and the New York Yankees overcame a five-run deficit to beat the Minnesota Twins 6-5.

Aaron Judge hit a tying three-run homer off Alex Colomé with two outs in the eighth inning.

New York won for just the fourth time in 16 games following a 13-game winning streak. It closed within a half-game of AL wild-card leaders Toronto and Boston.

Gleyber Torres, who lost his shortstop job and was moved to second base, scored the winning run.
