Yankees' Judge out of lineup vs. Phillies with 'elbow issue'

NEW YORK -- Yankees right fielder Aaron Judge is dealing with a right elbow "issue," according to manager Aaron Boone, and isn't in the team's lineup Saturday for just the second time this season.

Judge underwent testing on the elbow after experiencing discomfort throwing the baseball for the second time this week in Friday night's loss. Boone said the team is awaiting results and opinions on the matter.

"Hopefully it's something that's manageable and we can get through it," Boone said.

Judge's elbow first flared up when he made a throw against the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday.
