Giancarlo Stanton wowed New York Yankees fans with a home run on Thursday night that did damage in more ways than one.

The Yankees slugger smacked a solo home run in the bottom of the eighth inning to put his team up 7-4 against the Minnesota Twins. The home run was a line drive to right field that had an exit velocity measured at 105.9 mph.

That looked like it could have been really bad. Let’s hope the fan turned out to be OK.
