Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton on Slow Start: 'The Season's Much Longer Than a Week'

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton is not worried about his struggles to start the 2018 season.

"Just got to look at it as a bad week," Stanton told reporters Sunday. "The season's much longer than a week. A couple of good games, and I could turn it around and help us win."

Stanton is 7-for-42 (.167) with three home runs and seven RBI over his first 10 games in pinstripes. He went 0-for-7 with five strikeouts in Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Baltimore Orioles, his second time already this season with five strikeouts in a game.
