Tampa – If Aaron Judge appears a home run to break his own record of this season, Sunday will live in Infamy.
The Yankees star seemed to have crushed her eighth home run at the eighth entrance on Sunday in Steinbrenner Field, a moon kick in the left field line, just for Scott Barry to be governed by the third base.
A main crew review tested the opportunity to obtain the correct call, but the repetition center in New York finally decided that the call in the field was, stealing the judge of a solo shot.
“The audacity of the call position is remarkable,” said Aaron Boone, who was expelled a launch later When the judge was called by strikes, giving the manager the opportunity to obtain the value of his money in the field, arguing with both Adam Beck plate referees and then Barry.
After the game, before meeting with the journalists, Boone left the Casa Club and entered the video room with the training assistant Brett Weber, who directs the Yankees repetition system.
Boone wanted to get another look at the work, which only confirmed his initial feeling.
“It’s a homer,” said Boone. “I understand that it is tall, imposing. But then you will reproduce and I suppose you can find them conclusive enough [evidence]. We have to live with the call. “
The judge smiled wistully when asked about the call after 4-0 win over the rays.
“It was a fair ball,” Judge said. “That is why we obtained reproduction. It is not in the referee: it is difficult in a situation like this, in a smaller league park, the foul post is not so high. That is why you have reproduced, they have all the angles. That is a fair ball.”
Except in this case, Replay did not save the day for the judge, who would have had eight homers in his first 22 games of the season (putting him on the way to 59 in 162 games, just less than his record 62).
“I think they were all children to scratch their heads,” Judge said. “But nothing I can do about it. They lost it. I just have to move on.”
Cody Bellinger was standing on deck when the judge erased the Eric Orze field.
“I didn’t have a good vision of it, but it was probably the furthest ball I’ve hit,” Bellinger said.
Judge had to settle for going 1 by 4 in the day, extending his streak based on 18 games. He is heating .390 with 1,202 OPS.
While the third attack called in Orze’s 3-2 launch can have an attacks on the real leg, Boone had barking bars in Beck as soon as the second entry after calling two internal releases about Jasson Domínguez.
Then, combined with Barry’s questionable call, Boone appeared for his first expulsion of the year.
“When the third Baseman, third -base coach, our repetition knew, Judge knew: he began his [home run trot] … “Boone said.” I was hot a little early with a couple in JD. But I thought Adam in general did a good job there. The couple did not go on our way, that’s part of that. “
