3 years agoNew York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Los Angeles Angels. Stanton's homer was a no-doubter, traveling 426 feet at 108.4 MPH. It's his first round-tripper since June 17, as the nine-game stretch without a homer was his second-longest drought of the season. Stanton impressively ranks in the 100th-percentile in average exit velocity, max exit velocity, and hard-hit rate, leading to strong overall and expected numbers. He'll face a tough test on Wednesday against Shohei Ohtani, who owns a 33.1 percent strikeout rate and a .338 expected slugging percentage against.--Tim Capurso
