Judge started as the third right fielder in the final game of the three consecutive home games against the Athletics at Yankee Stadium on the 30th (Korea time), and led the team to a 12-5 victory with two hits, four RBIs, three runs and one walk in four at-bats, including two home runs.
With four home runs by Judge, Cody Bellinger and Jazz Chisom Jr., the Yankees scored the most points in 36 days and 32 games since the Colorado Rockies (13-1 win) on the 25th of last month, ending the three consecutive games with a 2-1 winning series.
The Yankees suffered from severe poor batting performance in June and suffered from a monthly record of 12 wins and 13 losses until the previous day. However, he scored four home runs that broke all silence and won a pleasant victory.
Judge added two home runs to reach 30 spots this season, trailing Seattle Mariners Carrolli (32) by two. Raleigh hit one hit in four at-bats against the Texas Rangers without a home run, and LA Dodgers Shohei Ohtani, the No. 1 NL home run, remained silent with no hits in four at-bats against the Kansas City Royals, maintaining his 29th home run.
If the pace is applied so far, Judge will have 59 home runs, Ohtani 55 home runs, and Raleigh 62 home runs.
Judge fired his first cannon in his third at-bat with two outs and a runner on second base in the bottom of the fourth inning with a 5-0 lead. On One Strike, Athletics right-hander Luis Severino pulled an 84.8-mile body sweeper on the second pitch and well over the left fence. The shooting angle was 36 degrees, the batting speed was 110.2 miles, and the distance was 402 feet.
The second home run came in the fifth at-bat in the seventh inning when he was being chased 10-5. Judge, who entered the batter's box with one out and runners on the first base, pulled a 95.5-mile fastball again and connected it to a two-run home run that fell into the bullpen behind the left-center fence after a close game with right-hander Tyler Ferguson going up to the ninth pitch. He hit his 30th home run of the season with a shooting angle of 26 degrees, a 107-mile batting speed and a flying distance of 426 feet.
