Sanchez had a huge day at the plate Wednesday, going 4-for-5 and hitting his first career major league home run en route to a 9-4 comeback win over the Red Sox.

Sanchez hit double-digit home runs in all but one of his seven minor league seasons, so there is reason to expect some level of power from the young catcher, who got the start at DH on Wednesday. With the departure of Carlos Beltran and phasing out of Alex Rodriguez, Sanchez has a clear path to getting starts at DH for the Yankees. He's now hitting .321 over 33 big league at-bats.
