BOSTON (AP) — Giancarlo Stanton has been plunked plenty of times. But by his own home run ball?The New York Yankees star homered over the Green Monster during Saturday’s 8-5 win http://www.marlinsfanproshop.com/authentic-j.-t.-realmuto-jersey , connecting in the seventh inning against the Boston Red Sox. Stanton then got quite a surprise from a strong-armed fan while rounding second base at Fenway Park.A man wearing a black T-shirt heaved the souvenir from his first-row seat on top of the left-field wall, and the ball took a hop and bounced off Stanton.“I wouldn’t have thought it got to me that fast with a fan throwing it,” Stanton said. “I’ve never seen it happen before, so that wasn’t my first thought.”The slugger continued his home run trot Brian Anderson Jersey , but turned his head, smiled and appeared to tip his cap to the fan.“He got it that far, got his target, he got in trouble for it http://www.marlinsfanproshop.com/authentic-miguel-rojas-jersey ,” Stanton said. “I think it’s fine on both sides.”The game was briefly halted as umpires gathered near the third-base line to point out the fan to stadium security officials.“You see a lot of things in these games,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. “I think some places it’s tradition, it lands on the field. Should probably just hang onto it.”Stanton’s solo homer, the Yankees’ 266th of the season Bryan Holaday Jersey , gave him his 100th RBI of the season. Gleyber Torres hit a two-run homer in the fourth to snap the Yankees’ tie with the 1997 Seattle Mariners for the most in a single season in major league history.“That was cool for me,” Stanton said. “A lot of cool things happened for our team today, so it was a good day.” WASHINGTON (AP) New York Mets left-hander Steven Matz will be evaluated by doctors after experiencing forearm discomfort.Manager Mickey Callaway said Wednesday that Matz reported the pain after he failed to get out of the first inning in Tuesday night’s 25-4 loss to the Washington Nationals.Matz threw 32 pitches, faced 11 batters and allowed seven runs on eight hits. Callaway says the 27-year-old was experiencing tightness and a ”dead arm.”Callaway says: ”Maybe he’s hitting a little bit of a wall right now.”Matz is 5-9 with a 4.35 ERA in 21 starts this season. He struggled with elbow problems through most of 2017 before having season-ending surgery in August.Matz has pitched 107 2/3 innings this season. His career high is 132 1/3 innings in 2016 Brad Ziegler Jersey , and Callaway says the workload may be a factor.—
