Yankees' Aaron Judge back in New York; Boone says 'we'll see' on Friday return

NEW YORK -- Aaron Judge is back in New York and could return to the Yankees' lineup Friday night at Baltimore.

Sidelined since early June with a toe injury, Judge played another simulated game Wednesday at the team's complex in Tampa, Florida. He returned to the Big Apple after that, manager Aaron Boone said.

Speaking at Yankee Stadium after his team's 3-1 victory over the New York Mets on Wednesday night, Boone said he didn't know yet if Judge would come off the injured list Friday to face the AL East-leading Orioles.

"We'll kind of see where we're at tomorrow," Boone said.
