Stanton goes oppo for 2-run shot vs. Astros

Maybe this is the blast that gets Giancarlo Stanton’s bat going. The Yankees certainly hope so. The slugger connected for his sixth home run of the season in the first inning against the Astros on Wednesday, driving a Dallas Keuchel two-seamer into the right-field seats for an opposite-field two-run shot and a 2-0 Yankees lead.
