VIDEO: Gary Sanchez Blasts Homer to Monument Park Against Padres
By Scott Rogust
Remember the talk of Gary Sanchez potentially being traded this offseason for J.T. Realmuto? The New York Yankees fan base is certainly happy they kept him, and for good reason. Entering Tuesday night against the San Diego Padres, Sanchez had 16 home runs on the season. In the bottom of the fourth inning, Sanchez earned his 17th by demolishing the baseball, sending it 436-feet deep into Monument Park, located in deep center field.
