Nearly a month after going on the injured list with a flexor strain in his right elbow, New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge took the next step in his throwing progression by briefly throwing to bases from right field.

Aaron Judge didn’t waste words after Saturday’s 12–1 humiliation against the Red Sox at Yankee Stadium. He didn’t shield his teammates. He didn’t lean on manager-speak about turning the page. He put the responsibility right where it belongs, on the players around him in the room.

The Yankees come into play riding a five-game winning streak that included an historic nine-homer performance on Tuesday versus the Tampa Bay Rays. The Red Sox, conversely, have dropped three games in a row and are 3-7 in their last 10 contests.
