NEW YORK -- Fifteen hours after Giancarlo Stanton claimed a share of the Yankees' home run lead with the first walk-off blast of his pinstriped career, Aaron Judge pushed ahead of his slugging teammate with a two-run homer in the first inning on Thursday afternoon.
Judge's 19th homer, a two-run shot off Mariners left-hander James Paxton, came on a full-count 95.8-mph fastball. It rocketed off of Judge's bat at 107.8 mph, and it traveled 382 feet over the wall in right-center field, according to Statcast™.
Stanton made a bid to even the competition two pitches later, crushing a 96.
