MIAMI — It was all familiar for Giancarlo Stanton when he arrived at Marlins Park on Tuesday, signed a couple of autographs, posed for a photo and then walked into the players’ entrance at the ballpark that had been his home for six years.
But then, instead of taking the familiar left turn and heading to the plush, roomy home clubhouse, he turned right for the visitors’ clubhouse.
“It feels weird for sure,” said Stanton, dressed in his traveling gray pants and navy workout top as he spoke to a couple of dozen reporters in the dugout before the Yankees defeated the Marlins, 2-1, in 12 innings on Tuesday night on Miguel Andujar’s sacrifice fly.
