I’m not going to lie. I cannot wait for the Yankees to get back from the West Coast. These past few days have been rough. With a capital R. After a disappointing end to the series in Oakland, tonight was more of the same. Albeit with an historic, majestic home run from Aaron Judge that puts the free agent-to-be slugger closer to baseball immortality. And Oswaldo Cabrera teasing a dramatic, go-ahead home run in the ninth inning.
It looked early on like the Yankees offense was still in a funk. After DJ LeMahieu, Aaron Judge, and Andrew Benintendi went down in order in the first, the second inning was even worse.
