The Miami Marlins moved Marlins Park's fences in this year to try and increase home runs. If they decided tomorrow to move them back even further from their original location it still wouldn't hold Giancarlo Stanton down.
The slugger sent Rubby De La Rosa's offering out of the deepest part of the park, and presumably onto South Beach, for his ninth home run of the season, which moved him two back of Nolan Arenado for the league lead.
Clearly, Stanton's just bored now, and is in need of a new challenge. Perhaps he should try hitting some mammoth homers while wearing his Chewbacca mask.
