Yankees' Stanton back to IL with knee injury

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton is heading back to the injured list with a PCL strain of his right knee.

Stanton left the Yankees' 4-3 victory on Tuesday night against the Toronto Blue Jays with a bruised knee. On Wednesday, Yankees manager Aaron Boone said the results of an MRI were "good."

"He came in today and there's no swelling in there, but he's sore and stiff," Boone told reporters, according to Newsday. "He's just kind of going through treatment right now."

Stanton was not in the lineup for Wednesday afternoon's 8-7 win over the Blue Jays.
