Yankees' Aaron Judge Talks Breaking 16-Game HR Drought with Grand Slam vs. Red Sox

Aaron Judge snapped the longest homerless drought of his career in grand fashion in the New York Yankees' 5-4 win over the Boston Red Sox on Friday night.

The six-time All-Star took a 95-mph fastball from Red Sox reliever Cam Booser in the bottom of the seventh deep to left field for a grand slam that turned a three-run deficit into a lead for the Yankees.

Speaking to reporters after the game, Judge downplayed knowing how long it had been since his last homer.

"Was it 16 games? I didn't really know that," Judge said.
