Aaron Judge’s chase for .400 gets boost — even if Yankees waste his latest two-homer game
NY Post
Aaron Judge gained another six points in his chase of .400.
Judge homered twice Sunday as part of a three-hit game that included reaching base four times, but Yankees pitching faltered in an 11-7 loss to the Red Sox.
Judge bumped his average to .396.
“It looks like he is more aggressive early in counts,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said. “We had a chance to challenge him a few times throughout the weekend and he did what he does. He’s on another level right now.”
Judge was hitting .393 — which just so happens to match Babe Ruth’s franchise record set in 1923 — before his 398-foot blast in the ninth inning.
That shot moved him into a tie with Lou Gehrig for the third-most multihomer games in Yankees history (43).
