Aaron Judge has brutal Yankees performance as he faces boos from hometown Giants crowd
NY Post
SAN FRANCISCO — Aaron Judge’s season began with him being booed by the home crowd at Oracle Park during pregame introductions, and then getting it even more prior to his first at-bat.
And his night — aside from the lopsided 7-0 Yankees win over the Giants — only got worse.
Judge, who grew up a Giants fan in nearby Linden, Calif., struck out in the first inning, again in the second, one more time in the fourth and again in the sixth.
Over the course of his second straight AL MVP season a year ago, Judge didn’t strike out four times in a game even once.
He did it five times in 2024, when he also won MVP.
The outcome will no doubt soon be forgotten, perhaps even as soon as Friday if Judge tees off on left-hander Robbie Ray, but for one night, he looked mortal.
Joe Flacco will be back for Season 19.
