New York Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton rocks MLB playoffs with epic 118.3 mph home run

SAN DIEGO -- This is the Giancarlo Stanton who New York Yankees fans have been waiting to see for the past three seasons.

Stanton has hit two home runs in Tuesday's Game 2 of the Yankees' division series against the Tampa Bay Rays and the second one was a legendary three-run blast off Tampa Bay starter Tyler Glasnow, a 118.3 mph rocket in the fourth inning, an estimated 458 feet onto the walkway behind the seats in left-center. Stanton also homered in the second inning, a low liner down the right-field line that just cleared the fence.
