Stanton's 'superhero swing,' 2 HRs thrill Yanks
NEW YORK -- As Giancarlo Stanton ran around the bases early in Tuesday night's game against the rival Boston Red Sox, cameras caught a couple of his New York Yankees teammates trying to emulate his violent, line-drive swing.
Most notable was veteran starting pitcher CC Sabathia, throwing out his hands and rolling over his wrists in an action that mimicked, in an exaggerating manner, the downward slice of someone swinging an ax. He and others in the Yankees' dugout were trying to figure out how Stanton could have hit a homer based on the location of the up and away pitch.
