PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Clearing one fence wasn't enough for Giancarlo Stanton on Monday afternoon, so he decided to hurdle two with one mighty swing in Miami's 11-1 win over the Mets at Tradition Field.
Stanton's two-run blast off Jack Leathersich was yet another video game-like moment for the 24-year-old slugger.
The home run sailed beyond the outfield wall in left and onto Field 7, directly behind the main field, of the Mets' complex.
Estimates aren't provided for Grapefruit League home runs, but if they were, Stanton's likely would rank among the longest shots thus far in Spring Training.
It was an especially impressive at-bat, because before the homer, Stanton launched a towering drive to left that landed foul. That shot may have traveled farther, and it certainly was higher. A few pitches later, he delivered his second homer in as many games.
So often a player who connects on a long drive that sails foul doesn't follow with a homer in the same at-bat.
"I just wanted to hit the ball hard," Stanton said. "I've seen where I've done it and other players have done it, when you hit a ball like that foul, you go ahead and call it a day with that at-bat. That was more of my focus, to make sure I wasn't like, 'Hey, I hit a home run foul, good for me.' That was more of what I was thinking."
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- All had been quiet on the injury front until Monday afternoon, when the Marlins revealed two setbacks.
After an 11-1 win over the Mets at Tradition Field, a couple of ailments were announced. Jeff Baker was replaced in the second inning because of a strained left quad, and Rafael Furcal exited in the fifth inning with a strained left hamstring.

NEWORLEANS--Gov. Bobby Jindals legislative priorities are rather limited compared to last year, when he failed to get lawmakers to go along with his tax swap idea.
By contrast, this year Mayor Mitch Landrieu is swinging for the fences.
Jindal is pushing for better workforce development, tort reform and stronger action against human trafficking in the state. He is also asking lawmakers to limit the authority of the Eastbank Flood Protection Board, which is now suing the oil and gas industry.
Beyond that, his legislative agenda is rather limited.
Not only in terms of tax reform, but education reform, said Eyewitness News political analyst Clancy DuBos. He just doesnt seem to be as ambitious in terms of his legislative agenda as he was in prior years.
Landrieu, a former state representative, is working with the New Orleans delegation on a wide range of bills.
