10-year Marliniversary: Stanton’s 10th-inning blast propels Marlins past Giants, 3-2

The only player in franchise history to be named National League MVP, Giancarlo Stanton hit more home runs in a Florida/Miami Marlins uniform than any other player in franchise history.

A number of those blasts came at opportune times. That includes one that took place on this day 10 years ago. After the Miami Marlins had let a ninth-inning lead slip away, Stanton saved the day with a 10th-inning blast in a 3-2 win over the San Francisco Giants.

The Marlins took a 2-0 lead to the bottom of the ninth at AT&T Park on May 2, 2012.
