NEW YORK (AP) Gleyber Torres hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the fifth inning and had three RBIs against his former team, leading the Detroit Tigers over New York 11-1 on Wednesday night for their first season-series win against the New York Yankees since 2011.<\/p>\n
Riley Greene, Kerry Carpenter and Colt Keith added late two-run homers against a Yankees bullpen that has given up 18 earned runs over two games, raising its ERA since the All-Star break to 5.37. Greene had three RBIs.<\/p>\n
New York has lost consecutive games by 10 or more runs for the third time. The others came in September 1908 and August 1988.<\/p>\n
Detroit has outscored New York 23-3 over the past two nights and won four of five against the Yankees this year with one meeting left. The Tigers (84-62) moved past Toronto (83-62) for the best record in the American League and opened a 9 1\/2-game AL Central lead.<\/p>\n
Yankees star Aaron Judge went 0 for 3 and hit into a pair of double plays, dropping his batting average to .319. His major league batting lead, which he has held since April 16, was cut to less than a percentage point over Athletics rookie Jacob Wilson.<\/p>\n
Austin Wells hit an eighth-inning homer for New York, which remained one percentage point ahead of Boston for the top AL wild card.<\/p>\n
Yankees outfielder Austin Slater got the final two outs in the ninth, lobbing pitches as slowly as 36.4 mph.<\/p>\n
Jack Flaherty (8-13) allowed two hits in five innings with seven strikeouts in his first win since Aug. 19.<\/p>\n
Carlos Rod\u00f3n (16-8), who had won his prior five starts, permitted two runs and six hits in six innings with six strikeouts.<\/p>\n
Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe, hitting .173 (22 for 133) in his last 38 games, was out of the starting lineup, replaced by Jos\u00e9 Caballero.<\/p>\n
Tigers third baseman Zach McKinstry missed his second straight game because of upper back stiffness.<\/p>\n
Torres lined a full-count, bases-loaded single into center field with two outs for a 2-0 lead in the fifth.<\/p>\n
New York had won seven of its previous eight series.<\/p>\n
Yankees RHP Cam Schlittler (2-3, 3.24 ERA) starts Thursday’s series finale, while RHP Sawyer Gipson-Long (0-2, 5.59) will be a bulk pitcher for Detroit.<\/p>\n
