Silverman: Aaron Judge makes quite the first impression

Aaron Judge is fine.

There’s a seat in right field at Fenway Park that needs to be checked for a concussion, broken steel and strained padding after Judge slammed into it after tracking down a foul ball, then diving over the wall to make a catch last night.

It was the play of the game, just as Judge’s flick of a two-run home run to the opposite field on a first-pitch offering from Rick Porcello in the second inning was the offensive moment of the 3-1 Yankees victory last night.

Far more than your standard player of the game, Judge’s big night also marked his coming out party as an official Red Sox nemesis.
