Aaron Judge given hero's welcome as New York Yankees star attends New York Rangers game

Major League Baseball star Aaron Judge was already a hero in New York, but the committed Yankees star was feeling the love at Madison Square Garden on Monday.

Judge signed a nine-year contract with the Yankees this winter after entering free agency, and his $360million (£292.5m) deal became the largest in MLB history. Judge initially declined the Yankees opening offer and was the most wanted man in the league, but later re-signed to stay in New York.

The American league home-run record holder has been enjoying his off-season, and was spotted at MSG as he attended the New York Rangers NHL clash against Florida Panthers. The Rangers may have sprinted to a 6-2 victory, but when Judge's face appeared on the screen it received one of the best receptions of the night.
