NEW YORK - The A’s got their first look at Aaron Judge in a Yankees’ uniform on Friday night, but they’ve seen the exciting rookie outfielder plenty before: Oakland drafted Judge in the 31st round of the 2010 draft out of Linden High School.
That leads to a fun “what if” line of thought: Judge, 25, leads the league with 15 homers. How might that look in a lineup with Khris Davis (14 homers) and Yonder Alonso (13 homers)?
Well, it was never to be, Judge said Friday at Yankee Stadium.
