Yankees’ Aaron Judge blasts home run vs. Red Sox in Fenway debut at-bat (Video)

New York Yankees’ right fielder Aaron Judge holds court in Fenway with a 2-run home run off Rick Porcello.

All rise. Court is in session. The massive Aaron Judge is holding court tonight. The case between the people of the New York Yankees versus the Boston Red Sox is now on the docket. And Judge is already holding the Red Sox in contempt of court.

The longstanding rivalry between the Yankees and Red Sox presents lots of evidence of assault with deadly weapons, theft, and disturbing the peace. For decades, these parties fought against each other, for respect and dominance. And now, Judge is presiding.

When he takes his place in the batters box, the 6-foot-7, 282-pound justice is rather intimidating, even in his first year. And, if he finds the reason, he is quick to pound his gavel and hold someone in contempt. Red Sox pitcher Rick Porcello fell victim to his rather tonight.

With one swift swing, Judge pronounced his judgment. It did not matter where the pitch wanted to go, as it was sentenced to exile in the right field seats. It is his seventh such opinion of the season, tying him for highest in the American League.

What makes this day all the more special is that it is the rookie’s 25th birthday. No need to see his birth certificate. Judge is here, large, and in charge. With the young star pushing the Yankees, one of the best rivalries in all of sports receives a surge of energy. Both teams are going to be in contention for years to come, and the Judge will be a leading character as the games continue. He just needs a good nickname.

I have a feeling that the Red Sox may call him, “Judge Dread.”
