The New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton had an average type regular season in this past coronavirus season but exploded with power in the postseason. Stanton hit just four home runs and nineteen hits for an average of .250 in his injury-shortened season. But a new sheriff in town showed up in the postseason. Stanton hit six home runs in just seven postseason games, hitting .318.
Stanton’s performance was even greater than Yankee fans hoped for when the Marlins traded him to the Yankees in 2018. In 2017 he hit an incredible 59 home runs, but the Yankees only got 38 in 2018, which is nothing to sneeze about, but since then, he has become the glass man spending more time injured than hitting home runs for the Yankees.
