The Phillies might have Aaron Judge to thank for their Game 2 win.

Philadelphia Phillies left-fielder Andrew McCutchen is known for his bat and the overall positivity that he brings to the clubhouse, but he might have been inspired or given extra motivation to make a game-changing play thanks to one of his former New York Yankees teammates.

In the bottom of the second inning of Game 2 of their Friday doubleheader against the New York Mets, McCutchen made an unbelievable leaping catch at the left-field wall to rob a two-home run from Albert Almora.
