CLEVELAND -- New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton took batting practice with teammates on Tuesday as he continues to recover from elbow issues.
Stanton took swings before the game at Progressive Field as the Yankees prepared for the middle game of their series against the Cleveland Guardians.
While Stanton has been working behind the scenes, this was the first time he has taken outdoor batting practice. Manager Aaron Boone did not mention anything about Stanton's progress during his pregame availability.
Stanton has been dealing with tendinitis in both elbows, with the ailment known as "tennis elbow" shutting him down since spring training.
