Ahead of Wednesday’s game, manager Aaron Boone revealed the latest on Judge.
Via Brendan Kuty of The Athletic: “Yankees have not determined when Aaron Judge (stress fracture right first rib) will be examined again by doctors, Boone said.”
Before getting hurt, Judge had been batting .248 with 53 hits, 17 home runs, 38 RBIs, 43 runs and five stolen bases in 59 games.
He is in the middle of his 11th MLB season (all with the Yankees).
