Aaron Judge delivers game-winning hit as Yankees rally past Blue Jays in ninth to end losing skid
NY Post
TORONTO — Before walking to the plate with two outs and the bases loaded in the top of the ninth inning of a tie game Wednesday, Aaron Judge was having a fairly miserable series.
The Yankees captain was 0-for-12 with seven strikeouts, punctuating a slow start to the season.
But he delivered just in time to avoid a complete clunker of a series for himself and the Yankees.
Judge ripped a two-run single down the third-base line to lift the Yankees to a 6-4 win over the Blue Jays, snapping a three-game losing streak and narrowly avoiding a three-game sweep at Rogers Centre.
“You just leave it all out there,” Judge said. “It doesn’t matter what happened before. If you had a good game, if you had a bad game, you can change the course of everything with just one swing.”
On the way to their sixth comeback win of the year, the Yankees (13-6) erased a 4-1 deficit and put together a four-run ninth to win it and finish off a 3-3 road trip.
