The New York Yankees are getting a front-row seat to the Juan Soto postseason show.

Hosting the Cleveland Guardians for Game 1 of the American League Championship Series on Monday night, Soto made sure to give them a warm welcome on a chilly night.

After smoking a 110.5 mph single off Guardians starter Alex Cobb in the first inning, Soto collected his first postseason home run while wearing pinstripes.

It was a solo blast into the Yankees bullpen that came off his bat at 109.7 mph. Soto hit .286 in the American League Division Series, and he's gotten off to a hot start in the ALCS.

Soto is in line for a historic contract this offseason and his performance in the playoffs thus far is only helping his stock.
