Giancarlo Stanton’s first game in New York didn’t go as planned. The reigning National League MVP managed to strike out five times.
Yankees fans showed just how quickly they can turn on someone. Stanton was booed after his fourth and fifth strikeouts.

The expectations in New York are very high. They will cheer when you play well and boo when you don’t. The five strikeouts won’t be an issue, how he bounces back from the boos could be.
Welcome to the Bronx Giancarlo, you’re definitely not in Miami anymore. This is the big leagues.
