New York Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton hits a two-run home run for the American League in their MLB All-Star Game victory over the National League
LOS ANGELES – Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton and Minnesota’s Byron Buxton hit back-to-back home runs to key the American League’s 3-2 victory in the 92nd Major League Baseball All-Star Game on Tuesday.
Stanton, who has 24 homers in the first half of the season, belted a 457-foot game-tying two-run home run off Dodgers pitcher Tony Gonsolin in the top of the fourth.
It flew into the Dodger Stadium bleachers left of center field — right about where Los Angeles native Stanton used to sit as a youngster when he could find a way to scare up a ticket to a Dodgers game.
