Stanton made the big time slam look easy as it went to the opposite field with a simple flick of the wrists.
Stanton has been sidelined since March thanks to a shoulder and biceps issue, but is clearly looking like he's back to full strength. He will continue to make starts with Tampa and Triple-A Scranton before he potentially rejoins the Yankees for their next homestand against the Tampa Bay Rays.
