VIDEO: Gary Sanchez Deposits Home Run Into Right Field to Extend Yankees' Lead Over Padres
By Adam Weinrib
Through his first three at-bats against Matt Strahm, Gary Sanchez had compiled a trio of whiffs. His fourth AB, though? It came against Craig Stammen, and it went a little better. Check out Sanchez using the short porch to perfection and extending the Yankees' lead to 4-2 by getting under one and lifting a fly ball out of the yard.
Gary Sanchez hit 18 HRs in all of 2018.

Sanchez is back to playing like the All-Star we watched in 2016-2017. #Yankees pic.twitter.com/dWZyEd49gJ
This Memorial Day has been all about bullpenning for the NYY, after Chad Green opened things up and went a singular inning, and the rest of the Yanks relievers have followed suit. The team hasn't been hitting much, but they do have three longballs. Sound familiar?
