VIDEO: Yankees' Aaron Hicks Continues to Murder Twins With Another Home Run
By Daniel Marcillo
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks will never allow the Minnesota Twins to forget that they traded him for a backup player. He stroked another long home run into the second deck of Target Field on Wednesday night to extend the Yankees' lead just a day after he crushed Minnesota's hopes in a wild affair.
Hicks has made his presence felt on both sides of the ball in this series. He coupled his clutch home runs with an unreal diving catch to end Tuesday's extra inning slugfest with a bang.
Hicks has not been alone in his assault of the Minnesota Twins. Gleyber Torres added his first July home run with a long blast into the left field bleachers.
Jake Odorizzi was hoping to calm the white hot Yankees offense, but he's been serving up batting practice tonight.
