Stanton. Crushed. Again. https://t.co/5dMjJq3EHh
Stanton cleared the batter's eye in his first AB, then cleared the scoreboard his second time up. Definitely have not seen that in one game in 15+ years covering the Yankees. As one scout just texted: "That's about 900 feet with two swings."
Yeah this guy will have the most raw power in the league until the day he retires, dude looks like he puts no effort into a swing on a well-placed pitch and it’s an absolute nuke https://t.co/noSTRz4sAV
