Talking to Stanton, Fallon jokingly said, “We know you obviously know how to swing a bat, man. It’s just awesome to watch you. And it’s fun to watch the team that you’re facing against when you come up. Because all of a sudden, they’re getting ready for you, like, ‘Oh My Gosh, What’s Gonna Happen?’ But one thing I don’t think you know how to do. I don’t think if you’ve heard this, that’s not how you eat a Kit Kat..”

Stanton then remarked with a smile, replying that he knows how to eat a Kit-Kat. He also asked what is the right etiquette to eat one. At that, Fallon added, “That’s not the right way. I mean, the attitude is cool. I like the attitude. It’s four different candy bars, not one sandwich. It’s not like a slice of pizza or something. That’s not how you do it.” Needless to mention, the conversation was light-hearted and for the sake of humor.
Stanton in the ongoing season
Stanton has missed more than a handful of games this season because of injuries. Fitness issues are not ending for the champion slugger, as he got injured again recently. The Yankees, as a team, are still making fine progress amidst inconsistencies. There are fair chances for Stanton to lift the World Series trophy with his team this year.
