In a surprising turn of events, New York Yankees’ captain Aaron Judge and his teammate, outfielder Juan Soto, found themselves at odds during a recent post-game interview. The cameras captured the tension as the two superstars exchanged differing views on Soto’s performance.
Juan Soto had a memorable game, hitting three home runs in a single game for the first time in his illustrious career. His remarkable feat helped the Yankees secure a 4-1 victory against the Chicago White Sox, leveling the series at Guaranteed Rate Field.
After the game, Aaron Judge spoke to the media, praising Soto’s abilities: “He’s that kind of player. That’s why he’s the best hitter in baseball.” However, Soto disagreed with his captain’s assessment. He responded, “Look at his numbers; the kid is incredible. He makes my job easier. When you bat in front of someone like him, you know they’ll pitch to you. He’s the best.”
Yankees’ manager Aaron Boone also weighed in, acknowledging Soto’s outstanding performance: “Watching Juan play, I feel like I’m witnessing one of the best seasons I’ve ever seen. Then I see Aaron bat behind him. I try not to take it for granted. I know it’s a tough spot, game after game.”
With the victory in Chicago, the Yankees now lead the American League East with an impressive 71-50 record.
Stay tuned for more updates as the Yankees continue their quest for postseason success!
