New York Yankees star responds after being booed by fans during MLB slump

Giancarlo Stanton is unfazed by the chorus of boos the slugger has faced from New York Yankees fans since retiring from injury.

Yankees fans are notoriously willing to boo their own players. Stanton certainly knows this from first-hand experience, when he struggled during his first season with the iconic franchise after switching from the Miami Marlins back in 2018.

The Yankees own a 43-35 record to sit third in the AL East, but Stanton has struggled since coming off the IL. The 33-year-old has hit .121/.215/.241 with two home runs and three RBI across his last 17 games, which is a gross underperformance by the five-time All-Star.
