FACTS/FLUKES: Ellsbury, Quintana, Kipnis, Feldman, Trumbo

Ellsbury becoming a singles machine…The Yankees are starting to put some space between themselves and the rest of the tightly-bunched AL East. Getting star centerfielder Jacoby Ellsbury (OF, NYY) back can only help. Ellsbury was hitting over .300 before going down with a knee injury that shelved him for six weeks. Now that he’s back in the lineup, can he help the Yankees win the division?
