Gary Sanchez is off to an historic start

Back in Pinstripe Alley’s season preview series, I wrote about how the Yankees were finally about to unleash the Big Three upon baseball. It hasn’t gone quite according to plan, with Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge both spending extensive time on the injured list, but boy howdy has one third of the Big Three showed up.

Gary Sanchez’s game-winning home run on Monday was his 13th of 2019. In about a third of the plate appearances as he accrued last year, he’s on pace to more than double 2018’s home run output.
