The post Aaron Judge Royals Resting Traced Back to the Boone Bet in Unexpected Reveal appeared first on EssentiallySports.
KANSAS CITY — It was about a week ago when Yankees captain Aaron Judge was approached by manager Aaron Boone about picking a day to sit out a game for the first time this season.
It’s Thursday, June 12 and the Yankees (41-25) are in Kansas City to take on the Royals (34-34). Will Warren is slated to take the mound for New York against Seth Lugo for Kansas City.
Aaron Judge wasted no time making his introduction to the Kansas City Royals fans at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday evening. During the top of the first inning, Judge also introduced himself to Royals starter Noah Cameron, taking the first hittable pitch he saw and obliterating it for a 469-foot home run that nearly left the stadium.
