Everyone inside Yankee Stadium thought Giancarlo Stanton’s deep fly to left-center field left the ballpark.
But he fell a few feet short, fooling the crowd and his play-by-play guy.
“Drilled deep to left field,” Kay said on the YES broadcast. “There it goes… See ya’, a long home run.”Giancarlo Stanton thought he hit a home run — but it was a double — against the Twins on Saturday.Kay quickly caught himself as he saw Stanton’s ball roll between Minnesota’s left and center fielders.
“No!” Kay said. “It went off the wall. My apologies, but two runs score and it’s a two-run double for Stanton.” The call wasn’t exactly John Sterling-esque as the team’s longtime radio play-by-play man had been known for calling home runs that are caught. That included one by Stanton last season against the Blue Jays that was caught a few feet from the wall at the warning track.The hit — Stanton’s lone one of the game — gave the Yankees a 6-1 lead, which would end up being the final score.
