Rosendo "Rusty" Torres Hernández (born September 30, 1948) is a Puerto Rican former professional baseball outfielder.

Playing for the Manchester Yankees, he missed much of the 1970 season due to injury, appearing in just 41 games and batting .244.

Playing for the Syracuse Chiefs, Torres batted .290 with 19 home runs in 133 games, earning himself a call-up to the Yankees in September.

Torres made his major league debut as a 22-year-old with the New York Yankees on September 20, 1971, recording a single in four plate appearances against Baltimore.

Suddenly, outraged Senators fans stormed the field, causing the game to be forfeited to New York.

"[4] In 1972, Torres made the Yankees out of spring training, appearing on Opening Day as a pinch hitter.

On June 4, the Indians held a promotion to attract fans to the park for a game against Texas: the now-infamous Ten Cent Beer Night.

Two batters later, John Lowenstein hit a sacrifice fly, tying the game at 5–5, and putting Torres in scoring position on second base representing the winning run.

As a result, umpire crew chief Nestor Chylak forfeited the contest to the Rangers—the same franchise as the old Senators.

On September 12, he was traded to the California Angels in a deal that brought Frank Robinson to Cleveland.

Playing for the Salt Lake City Gulls, Torres batted a minor league career best .306 in 107 games.

He had just a .205 batting average, but his several walks and decent power made him a near-league-average offensive player (98 OPS+) that year.

Torres was signed on March 1, 1978, by the Texas Rangers, but for the first time in three years started the season in the minor leagues, playing for the Tucson Toros.

[8] After spending a few months with the minor league Iowa Oaks, Torres earned another shot at the majors in September.

He was batting .286 for the 1979 season by the morning of July 12; that night, Torres would start in right field in the first game of a doubleheader against the Detroit Tigers.

This time Torres wasn't on the field when the madness started; the first game had ended and Torres (who had singled and scored the Sox' only run in the 4–1 loss) was in the locker room when disc jockey Steve Dahl "blew up" a box of disco records, inspiring thousands of fans to run onto the field, which was eventually cleared by police in riot gear.

He spent the entire 1981 season with their top farm club, the Portland Beavers, batting .257 with 21 home runs.

In 2012, Torres was arrested and charged with sexually abusing some of the young players he was coaching, including an 8-year-old girl.
