NEW YORK -- When Aaron Judge finally received a clean bill of health last month, the Yankees witnessed a higher level of intensity from their slugging outfielder, who remained on the field long after his teammates for additional swings. If he is “on a mission,” as manager Aaron Boone believes, then that should be terrifying news for any opposing pitchers.
Judge extended his career-best streak by homering in a fifth consecutive game, then added a go-ahead blast in the eighth inning, powering a 9-7 victory over the Red Sox in a Sunday slugfest at Yankee Stadium. No big league team owns more wins than the Yankees, who have won six straight games and boast a 7-1 record that equals the best eight-game start in franchise history.
