ARLINGTON, Texas — Brett Gardner said in spring training that a goal of his for this season was to score 100 runs, which he hasn’t done at any level of professional baseball.

“On one hand it’s just a number, but on the other it’s important to set goals and reach them,’’ said Gardner who scored twice in the Yankees’ 16-7 win over the Rangers on Sunday at Globe Life Park.

With 20 games remaining, Gardner has 88 runs scored. His career-high is 97 in 2010.

“One hundred would be nice because I am not a guy who drives himself in 30 to 40 times,” Gardner said. “It would mean I am getting on base and the guys in the lineup would get credit. [Aaron] Judge has already scored 100, and we need that because the last few years the offense has been a little disappointing.’’

Didi Gregorius tied a career-high with four hits. He also drove in four runs. He has 10 RBIs in the last six games and is batting .385 (10-for-26) in that stretch. His 41 multi-hit games are the most by a Yankee this season.

Dellin Betances gave up two runs in the eighth inning Sunday when he walked two. He was pitching for the first time since Tuesday, when he gave up a two-run, game-winning homer to Manny Machado in Baltimore and eventually was replaced by Aroldis Chapman as closer.

Getting hit by pitches twice Saturday and once each Thursday and Friday didn’t factor into manager Joe Girardi’s decision not to start third baseman Todd Frazier on Sunday.

“We have four guys for three spots and I am just trying to keep them all involved,’’ said Girardi, who started Chase Headley at third base and Greg Bird at first base.

The fourth guy in the equation is Matt Holliday who would have been the DH if not for Girardi using Gary Sanchez there with Austin Romine catching Jordan Montgomery.

“You look at a couple of days in advance and try to put something together,” Girardi said. “It’s not been difficult.’’

As for Frazier, he had a knot on his left elbow after Saturday’s victory, but said Sunday he was fine.

Since Aaron Hicks went on the disabled list Sept. 3 with a strained left oblique muscle, the Yankees have been limited to three outfielders with extensive big league experience. They do have Tyler Wade and Tyler Austin to serve as fourth outfielders if necessary, but neither — even in the minor leagues — has spent a lot of time playing in the outfield.

That could change this coming week when Clint Frazier could be activated from the DL.

“I am not sure when he is coming,’’ Girardi said of Frazier, who has been out since Aug. 9 with a strained left oblique muscle. “But I expect him sometime [this] week.’’

In four postseason games for Double-A Trenton in the Eastern League playoffs, Frazier went 2-for-17 (.118) and has struck out 10 times.

“They have been okay,’’ Girardi said of the reports on Frazier’s at-bats. “Sometimes you don’t want to make too much of at-bats down there.’’

In 28 big league games, Frazier is hitting .243 (27-for-111) with four homers and 17 RBIs.

The Yankees didn’t need the Indians to carry a 17-game winning streak into Sunday night’s action to know the defending AL champs were a good team.

“They are on a roll and we were part of that,’’ said Girardi, whose club dropped three straight to the Tribe at Yankee Stadium in late August. “They are strong in all areas. For any team to win that many games in a row that is amazing. A pitcher can have an off day and the hitters can have an off day.’’

After Saturday’s win over the Rangers, the Yankees activated first baseman Garrett Cooper from a minor league rehab assignment, reinstated him from the 10-day DL and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. In 13 big league games, Cooper batted .326 (14-for-43).

Gardner said the concern about those affected by Hurricane Irma is more important than the Yankees and Rays having to shift a three-game series from St. Petersburg, Fla. to Citi Field.

“It’s important to get the games in, but we have to remember the people that are going through this,’’ Gardner said. “It will be weird playing at a neutral site.’’

Citi Field will be neutral in name only because their fans will far outnumber those pulling for the Rays in a venue that is 9.7 miles from Yankee Stadium.

Monday night will be the first time the Yankees have played a game against a team other than the Mets in Queens since April 15, 1998. A game against the Angels scheduled for Yankee Stadium was moved to Shea Stadium that day after a portion of the old Yankee Stadium collapsed. The Yankees played the 1974 and 1975 seasons at Shea while the Stadium was remodeled.
