Is this symbolic, you think?
After all the “controversy” surrounding Aaron Judge giving the side-eye before hitting a home run against the Toronto Blue Jays and the fallout from it that included Jays manager John Schneider chirping at the Yankees’ bench the next night, Judge stepped to the plate Tuesday night and sent one way gone to dead centerfield. Specifically, it was a 448-foot (!) dinger in a 6-3 win in Canada.
And it ended up breaking a piece off a maple leaf sign in the stands.
Now, the English major in me is getting big symbolism vibes after Judge was accused of stealing signs, but whatever:
