The Yankees got one of their big guns – their biggest one – back just in time for the stretch run.
Aaron Judge, out since July 27 with a right wrist fracture, cleared his final hurdle Tuesday morning in a simulated game and was in the starting lineup for Tuesday night’s game against the Red Sox.
“I felt like I never left,” Judge said. “That’s all you can really ask for after missing so many weeks.”
Judge, who batted second and played rightfield, hit a couple of balls hard but went 0-for-4 in the Yankees’ 3-2 win that kept the Red Sox, for one night at least, from clinching the AL East title at the Stadium.
