The New York Yankees' Mr. October took the field again in Game 1 of the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers – and no, it's not Aaron Judge.

Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton hit a stunning two-run home run from Dodger Stadium to give his team a 2-1 lead heading into the sixth. Stanton sent Dodgers starter Jack Flaherty's pitch into the left-field seats with a booming hit that, according to Fox announcers, “scratched the sky.” It was Stanton's 17th postseason home run and his first in the World Series.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and many others in the sports world couldn't help but marvel at Stanton's monstrous home run.

The same goes for Freddie Freeman in the Dodgers' lead role.

Fox cameras captured Freeman on the field in complete awe as he watched Stanton's moonshot leave the stadium.

Just no words.

Stanton has now hit a home run in each of his last four games for the Yankees. The ball traveled 412 feet and reached a top speed of 116.6 miles per hour, which was the hardest hit ball in the World Series under Statcast, according to MLB's Sarah Langs.

With his 17th playoff home run, Stanton moves up the all-time leaderboard and is tied with Bryce Harper, David Ortiz and Jim Thome for career postseason home runs.
