Video: Yankees' Aaron Judge Talks 1st Career Ejection After Arguing 3rd Strike Call

New York Yankees star Aaron Judge says he was "very surprised" to receive the first ejection of his MLB career after arguing over a third strike call during Saturday's win over the Detroit Tigers.

"Especially a 5-3 game, late in the game, bat on the 3-2 count, kind of walking away saying my piece," Judge told Meredith Marakovits of the YES Network. "I've said a lot worse, and made a scene. I usually try not to make a scene in situations like that, so a little surprised walking away that happened."

Judge was ejected by umpire Ryan Blakney in the seventh inning.
