Yankees' Aaron Judge: Snaps brief homer drought in win
Rotowire
Judge went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and an additional run scored in Wedensday's win over the Royals.
Judge's highlight of the night came on a go-ahead homer in the seventh inning, which gave the Yankees a 4-3 lead. The big fly snapped a 10-game homer dry spell by the superstar slugger, who is still bating a ridiculous .426 (20-for-47) with three round trippers, 10 RBI, 11 runs scored and two stolen bases across his last 13 outings.
Judge went 0-for-1 with two walks in Friday's 9-1 rain-shortened loss to the Giants.
The Yankees weren't able to generate much offense in a game that was halted in the sixth inning due to inclement weather, but Judge managed to reach base twice by drawing walks in each of his first two plate appearances. Judge leads the American League in both home runs (six) and RBI (20) and is slashing .347/.458/.776 across 59 plate appearances to start the season.
Yankees' Aaron Judge: Adds another homer, steal in win

Judge went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run, a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 9-4 win over the Pirates.
This was Judge's second game in a row with both a homer and a steal. He's taken the early lead in long balls this season with six over seven contests while racking up 17 RBI, 12 runs scored, two steals and a 4:10 BB:K. Judge is also hitting .379, having hit safely in six of seven games so far. He's exceeded the 50-homer mark three times in his career, including twice in the last three seasons, and the outfielder should continue to be a massive source of power in 2025.

Judge went 3-for-5 with a home run, four RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 9-7 win over Arizona.
Judge delivered the first blow in Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly's nightmarish evening with a three-run homer in the first inning, and the slugger later singled to drive in another run during the fourth frame. The reigning AL MVP is off to a ridiculous start in 2025, hitting .417 with five long balls, three doubles, 15 RBI and one stolen base through 24 at-bats (six games).
