Top right: The New York Yankees are beginning to look like a scary team, and the return of slugger Giancarlo Stanton is one reason why. On Saturday, Stanton had a pair of two-run singles in a 7-5 win over the Houston Astros, including this go-ahead single in the bottom of the 7th inning that broke a 5-5 tie. The Yanks now own MLB's longest active winning streak at eight games and have the second-best record in the American League behind only the Minnesota Twins. Photo by USA Today
