Aaron Judge Blasts Silencing Go-Ahead HR in Yankees-Blue Jays Heated Rivalry
The last 24 hours were tension-filled (to say the least) in the AL East after Aaron Judge was caught glancing at the dugout during an at-bat on Monday against the Blue Jays. Cheating accusations? They were in the air. On Tuesday, Yankees’ pitcher Domingo German was ejected after a sticky substance check that only made matters worse. But cheaters or no cheaters, Judge still holds the biggest bat in baseball. In the 8th inning of a tied game (3-3), No. 99 crushed a 448-foot two-run homer that shattered a sign in center-field and tilted the scoreboard toward New York (6-3). The Yankees are the hottest team in the American League over the past two weeks, and the AL East is looking like a season-long bloodbath.
