New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton will start at designated hitter and bat fifth in Tuesday's series opener against right-hander Alex Faedo and the Detroit Tigers.

Stanton only hit lower than the cleanup spot in one other game this season. Jasson Dominguez will bat third and Gleyber Torres will handle cleanup duty for the Yankees on Tuesday.
