Giancarlo Stanton showcased his power once again at Dodger Stadium during the opener of the Yankees-Dodgers World Series. Despite hitting a go-ahead, two-run homer in the sixth inning, the Yankees fell short in a 6-3, 10-inning loss to Los Angeles. Freddie Freeman sealed the victory for the Dodgers with a walk-off grand slam.
Stanton, known for his impressive postseason performances, has hit six home runs and driven in 13 RBIs this postseason, leading the Yankees in both categories. His 17 career postseason homers in just 135 at-bats rank among the best ratios in baseball history. Stanton is the only player to have homered in four consecutive postseason games twice.
