After a very slow start where he was criticized and even booed by a section of Yankee Stadium, Aaron Judge has shown that he never really left the New York Yankees and this Saturday he managed to extend his streak of home runs that he has maintained for the last four games.

Judge homered for the second time in the series against the San Diego Padres and the fourth in a row after the two homers he hit against the Seattle Mariners, showing that his power is still intact.

In the case of this Saturday, the Yankee Captain did not wait for anything to be present on the board because against the starter Dylan Cease he caught a pitch that stayed in the entire half of the plate to open his arms and deposit the ball throughout the garden left center of Petco Park in San Diego.

As if that were not enough, the hit added two runs for the Yankees, thanks to a hit by shortstop Anthony Volpe who maintains a streak of 18 consecutive games with at least one single connected.

Judge’s performance in recent games has been fundamental for the Yankees to remain leading the American League East Division, averaging .275 with 16 home runs, 37 RBIs and negotiating 43 walks.
