During the offseason, the New York Yankees signed outfielder Aaron Judge to a $360 million contract because he’s the rare superstar who’s talented enough to carry an entire offense to a series win. Judge’s power, approach and clutch factor make him the most dangerous hitter in baseball, which he’s showing this weekend as the Yankees visit Great American Ball Park.
On Saturday, in front of a sellout crowd of 41,374, Judge had three hits and two RBI and led the Yankees to a 7-4 10-inning win over the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park. One day after Judge homered and also drew a walk that changed the game for the Yankees, Judge showed again the type of difference that an MVP can make in a lineup.
