Yankees' slugger Aaron Judge strikes out four times, hears boos on promotional bobblehead day
NEW YORK (AP) — Yankees captain Aaron Judge was booed by New York fans on his bobblehead day after he struck out for the fourth time in Saturday’s 2-0, 10-inning loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.
“I’ve heard worse and I’d probably be doing the same thing in their situation,” Judge said after his 10th career game with four or more strikeouts.
Judge is hitting .179 with three homers, 11 RBIs and a team-high 27 strikeouts.
“It’s still early,” Judge said. “It’s a long season but just missing the pitch. If I get a pitch in the zone, I got to capitalize on it because I don’t get many and usually that what’s it comes down – don’t miss your pitch when you get it – and take your walks when you’re not getting anything.”
Judge struck out in the first, fourth and sixth innings against Zach Eflin and in the ninth against Jason Adam. The last promoted the rough reaction from the sellout crowd of 47,629.
