MLB World Series Bracket 2024: MVP race ahead of Yankees vs. Dodgers Game 2 | News, results, highlights, statistics and rumors

Giancarlo Stanton continued his fantastic postseason with a moonshot of his own in the sixth inning that chased Jack Flaherty out of Game 1.

Stanton hit a low pitch deep into the left field stands, giving the Yankees the lead for the time being.

The Yankees slugger has now hit a home run in four straight postseason games and has six long balls this postseason.

Stanton has consistently been one of the best postseason home run hitters of the current generation of players.

He's hit as many as 17 postseason home runs in his career, and given his current form, it wouldn't be shocking at all if he hits a few more home runs and is in the running for the MVP award by the end of the series.
