‘Glass body’ Stanton hits 400 home runs in his career… 4th lowest games ever

New York Yankees Giancarlo Stanton (34) received his 400th touch.

Stanton started as designated hitter No. 5 in the 2023 Major League Baseball game against the Detroit Tigers held at Yankee Stadium in New York on the 6th (Korean time), and recorded 1 hit and 2 RBIs in 4 at-bats.

One hit turned into a home run.

Stanton came to bat with 2 outs and runners on base in the 6th inning with the game tied 1-1, and kicked up Detroit Jose Cisnero’s low slider on the 3rd pitch and sent it over the left-center fence.

This is the 22nd home run of the season and the 400th home run of his personal career, hit in 2 games since the Houston Astro game on the 2nd.

Stanton became the 400th player to make an arc in 1,520 games, the fourth fewest games in history.

There are only three players who hit 400 home runs faster than Stanton: Mark McGwire (1,412 games), Babe Ruth (1,475 games), and Alex Rodriguez (1,489 games).

Among active players, there are only three players who have reached the 400 home run mark, including Stanson, Miguel Cabrera (Detroit, 510 home runs), and Nelson Cruz (San Diego Padres, 464 home runs). Stanton is the 10th person to hit 400 home runs while wearing a Yankees uniform.

[New York = AP/Newsis] New York Yankees Giancarlo Stanton hits his 400th career home run in the 6th inning at the Detroit Tigers on the 6th (Korean time). 2023.09.06.
Stanton, who made his big league debut with the Florida Marlins (now Miami Marlins) in 2010, played for Miami until 2017 and joined the Yankees in a trade ahead of the 2018 season.

Contrary to his great expectations, Stanton was unable to demonstrate his skills due to frequent injuries. He frequently got injured and was given the unpleasant nickname ‘glass body’.

He also had difficulties this year, suffering a hamstring injury early in the season and being sidelined for more than a month. Even after regaining his health, he was unable to perform as expected.먹튀검증

Stanton is batting .205 in his 86 games this year, barely preventing his batting average from falling below .100.

According to MLB.com, Stanton expressed his frustration, saying, “I understand the fans’ frustration,” and “No matter what they do, it’s nothing compared to what I feel.”

Stanton, who had to hear boos from fans even at home, responded by raising his helmet to the applause of the crowd after hitting his 400th home run that day.
