New York Yankees star outfielder Aaron Judge didn't understand why Baltimore Orioles outfielder Heston Kjerstad was so angered by teammate Pablo Reyes's maneuver at second base, which irked Kjerstad and led to the benches clearing during Wednesday's game.

"Yeah it was a weird bench clearing," Judge said while speaking to reporters after the Yankees' 5-4 loss to the Orioles. "The guy's [Reyes] jumping up to make a play. I don't know what he's [Kjerstad] all mad about. But I don't know about a rivalry. We've got a job to do. We're just out here to play ball."
