New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto belted a pair of home runs in the club's 9-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday at Yankee Stadium. The first home run, aside from extending the Yankees' lead to 6-1, was notable for another reason.
As fans and even Yankees play-by-play commentator Michael Kay noted, Soto took an unusually long time trotting around the bases—37 seconds to be exact. On average, the slowest home run trot in the majors this year is just under 30 seconds, for the record.
