That was neither a bird nor a plane sailing over the right-field wall Friday night. It was Aaron Judge’s first home run in a week.

In response to the slump, Yankees captain Aaron Judge spoke candidly about the team’s poor form: “ That’s baseball. We know what we’re committed to... You can’t give up, you can’t have regrets. Just show up the next day and be ready to play,” Judge said.

Aaron Judge isn't letting his own struggles or those of the New York Yankees get him down. After the Yankees' dropped their sixth consecutive game with a 3-2 loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday, Judge told reporters they "can't mope" because every MLB season is full of peaks and valleys for every team.
