    "Obviously very dangerous right now," Marlins manager Don Mattingly said.

    Stanton hit a solo shot to deep left-center field off Madison Bumgarner (3-5) in the third inning, tying the game at 2.

    "It was a matchup a lot of baseball fans and us in the game look forward to," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "Bumgarner won't back down but (Stanton) got him."

    Stanton has 11 homers in his last 12 games, and 23 in the last 35. Only Sammy Sosa (25 in 1998) and Barry Bonds (24 in 2001) have hit more in that span, according to Elias.
