“This team has a lot of heart and they really battled to the end.” Today was tough, especially coming off two losses at Citi Field and then coming in here,” Judge said. The Yankees have found themselves in a bit of a rough patch with wins becoming harder to come by as of late. The New York victory came at a time that they needed one after dropping two straight to the New York Mets this past week and a pair of games to the Houston Astros last week to start the second half of the season.

The Yankees’ slugger got a hold of the first pitch and sent it 431 feet into the stands as Yankee Stadium erupted.

Judge has now hit three career walk-off home runs, all of which came this year. The solo blast was Judge’s MLB-leading 39th home run and marked the Yankees’ 12th walk-off win of the year as they snapped a two-game skid.
