New York Yankees: Aaron Judge ‘excited’ to feast on Mets’ pitching

He hasn’t played since Aug. 11, but New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge still feels hot. The 28-year-old, who is scheduled to return on Tuesday, is so confident he’s salivating at the thought of playing double dips against the New York Mets at the end of the week.

“I’m excited,” Judge told New York Post reporter Ken Davidoff. “If you’re swinging the bat well, doubleheaders are the best thing to a ballplayer. … I’m looking forward first to getting through the games in Atlanta and then back home against the Mets.
