Aaron Judge has been in the spotlight this week after cameras caught the Yankees’ star outfielder appearing to look into the dugout just a few pitches before blasting a 462-foot home run against the Blue Jays.
While Judge and the Yankees have denied any wrongdoing, and Toronto pitcher Jay Jackson admitted he was tipping pitches during the game, that hasn’t stopped an already-heated rivalry from ramping up another notch this week.
Judge, who told reporters his eye movements were simply a product of getting distracted by chirping in the Yankee dugout, took a subtle jab at the Blue Jays with his newest hit celebration. After a base hit Wednesday in Toronto, Judge turned to the Yankees' dugout and covered his eyes, seemingly poking fun at the situation.
