Yankees snap skid, lose Giancarlo Stanton in win over Braves

NEW YORK — The New York Yankees limited their losing streak to three games on Saturday, but they lost Giancarlo Stanton to left hamstring tightness in their 8-3 win over the Atlanta Braves.

Stanton, who has a long history of lower-body injuries, seemed to hurt himself when he scored from second base on a Gleyber Torres double in the fourth inning. After rounding third, Stanton appeared to wince on his way to the plate.

Trent Grisham pinch-hit for the designated hitter in the sixth inning. Stanton is expected to undergo imaging on Sunday, per a team announcement.
