COMMENTARY
Always fun to see the ol’ Trupiano Camera make an appearance, as the Red Sox dodge historical notoriety for one more day.
When Aaron Judge blasted a 2-and-2, ninth-inning fastball from Matt Barnes into the Bronx sky on Thursday night, it should have been a home run. That’s not partisanship, but precedent: Balls hit that hard, that high have almost always been monster homers in this era where we can put numbers to such things.
Alas, a guy whose prior 60 have been largely bereft of Yankee Stadium cheapos — only two of Judge’s home runs have been only-in-the-Bronx jobs — made his second 400-foot out of the year.
