It was at the beginning of the eighth inning against reliever Bryan Abreu when “El Juez” hit deep into right field that worried most of the local fans.
However, at the last minute the glove appeared Kyle Tucker to douse the Yankees’ hopes of matching the actions in Game 2 of the American League Championship Series.
The connection came off Judge’s bat at 106.3 mph and traveled 345 feet down right field, directly to Tucker’s gloved hand.

By the way, Judge’s shot would have been a home run at his home in Yankee Stadium, and in a few other major league parks.
