The New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers continue a three-game series on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium.
Anyway, Cole was sitting there in the dugout in the sixth rooting for a Yankees run. Aaron Judge led off with a walk, then Jasson Dominguez bounced into a fielder’s choice, bringing Giancarlo Stanton to the plate with a runner on first and one out.This time, Stanton laid off reliever Jose Cisnero’s first two pitches, a slider that was way inside for ball one and a sinker that hugged the bottom of the zone and was called a strike.
It would for most sluggers, but Stanton hits baseballs harder and further than anyone when he squares it up, Aaron Judge included, and he got all of this one. The 116.8 mph liner looked a Tiger Woods tee shot speeding from the plate over the left-field wall, past the Yankees bullpen and into the glove a fan sitting in row one of the bleachers.Cole cheered Stanton’s 400th homer with his teammates, coaches and the crowd of 31,533 on this hot school night in the Bronx.
The next day, two young aces had a great game, Cole for the Pirates and Marlins 20-year-old Jose Fernandez, whose 13 strikeouts in eight innings that day set a franchise record for a rookie.
