Gary Sanchez's scorching start with Yankees now includes an MLB record
Add another chapter to the legend of Gary Sanchez.
The New York Yankees' young catcher has been turning heads since his call-up and now he owns a piece of MLB history.
His solo homer on Saturday in a 13-5 win over the Baltimore Orioles was the 11th of his career -- all 23 games of it.
That's the fewest games any MLB player has ever needed to get to 11 home runs and it led to his first curtain call as a Yankee.
The 23-year-old is batting .400 with 21 RBIs and 18 runs in his brief time with the team, a huge month at the plate by anyone's standards.
But he's doing it behind the plate as well. Sanchez also caught Julio Borbon stealing on Saturday, the sixth time he's picked off a baserunner in nine tries.
