Yankees star Aaron Judge crashed through the door of the visiting bullpen while making a spectacular running catch during New York’s 6-3 victory on Saturday
Judge may have saved a run for the Yankees with his sprinting catch on JD Martinez’s liner into the right field corner with Max Muncy on first base and nobody out. The AL MVP made the catch in the eighth inning, an instant before running into the bullpen door, which came partly open when he hit it.“I thought I had a chance off the bat, but you never know,” Judge said. “I knew it was going to be close to the wall there, but luckily I came down with it.
Yankees manager Aaron Boone briefly argued the umpires’ decision to send Muncy to second, but only after detouring out to right field to check on Judge. Boone had been worried about Judge’s right foot, which kicked the concrete ledge below the swinging door fairly hard. Boone didn’t mind Judge’s heedless run into the corner for a difficult catch, saying it’s the only way Judge knows how to play. The Yankees were fairly sure the bullpen door had been latched closed, but it wasn’t strong enough to contain the 6ft 7in, 280lbs Judge.
