Aaron Judge Reaction And Decision After Being Booed By Fans Will Break The Fans Heart..
The New York Yankees lost this Saturday against the Tampa Bay Rays 2-0 in a struggling display for the Bronx Bombers’ offense at Yankee Stadium.
They were shut out and went ten innings without scoring a run. However, a Yankee has been dealing with a concerning slump since the beginning of the season.
The captain, Aaron Judge, who has been a pillar of strength for the Yankees, went 0-4 with four strikeouts, getting booed by the Yankees faithful. This is a stark contrast to his past performances, which have been nothing short of stellar, showing their disappointment with his recent form at the start of the 2024 MLB season.
However, speaking with the media after the game, Judge didn’t look upset at the fans, saying that he would be doing the same if he were in the stands.
Oh, I’ve heard worse, and I’d probably be doing the same thing in their situation. It’s still early, it’s a long season, but you know, I’m just missing the pitch. If I get a pitch in the zone, I gotta capitalize on it, ’cause I don’t get too many. I guess it’s what it comes down to it: Don’t miss your pitch when you get it and take your walks when you can.
Aaron Judge is having a miserable start of the season for the Yankees, as he is batting for .179/.323/.359 in 21 games; however, he still has some pop when he connects the ball and has driven in some runs, as he has three home runs and 11 RBIs.
His main weakness is still the strikeouts, having 27 Ks to his name, which is the highest in the Yankees lineup so far this year.
While Judge is in a slump, Juan Soto took the reigns of the offensive and has a 1.077 OPS, leads the team in home runs (5, alongside Giancarlo Stanton), RBIs (20), walks (18) and hits (28).
