BALTIMORE — Giancarlo Stanton, after going 2 for 25 over the Yankees’ previous six games and not hitting a ball out of the park for two weeks, slugged a two-run homer and went 2 for 4 on Saturday as the Yankees defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 8-5, for their fourth consecutive win.
Stanton had an infield single and drew a walk in addition to hitting his 12th home run, and he now has 31 runs batted in. When he led the major leagues with 59 homers and 132 R.B.I. last season with the Miami Marlins, much of his power production came later in the year.
