Giancarlo Stanton's home runs often look a little different than everyone else's.
“It's definitely impressive to see line drives of like 18 degrees go out for homers,” teammate Aaron Hicks said. “It's fun to watch.”
Stanton's 436-foot drive capped New York's three-run fifth inning, and the Yankees went on to a 4-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday night.
Anthony Volpe tripled for his first big league extra-base hit, Jhony Brito (2-0) allowed a run in five innings in his second career start and the slumping Hicks delivered a crucial RBI single for the Yankees.
