New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge didn't hit a home run but still left his fingerprints all over the club's 5-2 win over the Washington Nationals at Nationals Park on Monday night. First, Judge flashed the leather in the bottom of the fourth inning, leaping up and robbing Nationals first baseman Andrés Chaparro of a home run, then firing a strong throw into the infield to double up Washington outfielder Dylan Crews for the third out of the inning.
In the top of the ninth inning, Judge reached a milestone, rapping the 1000th hit of his career, leading to an amusing reaction from his teammates in the Yankees dugout.
