NEW YORK — Aaron Judge couldn’t save the Yankees this time.
The outfielder continued his MVP-caliber season Sunday, crushing a game-tying homer with one out in the eighth inning, but Aroldis Chapman allowed a leadoff homer to AJ Pollock in the ninth, helping send the Yankees to a 3-1 loss to the White Sox in the first game of a straight doubleheader at the Stadium.
Judge went 3-for-4, including his MLB-leading 15th homer that tied the score at 1-1 and improved him to 18 for his last 43 (.419).
