Related Topics: player, Aaron Judge, New York, Cindy Adams

It’s play ball. The Yankees. Opening Day. We can all sit in the stands and enjoy hot dogs and beer. But if we want to better ourselves, we might want to eat what they eat. Like, what is a favorite snack of right fielder Aaron Judge?

It may be in our best interest to know every single juicy detail of exactly what they eat.

So: Inside the players’ lower-level private space — underneath the stadium — exist these word-for-word signs written by nutritionist Cynthia Sass:

Pre-game Plate:

Lean protein = mental clarity

Green vegetable = anti-inflammation & energy

Plant-based fat (picture of avocado) = optimal circulation

Starch (picture of noodles) = muscle fuel

Fruit (picture of banana and cup of mixed fruit) = fuel & immune support

This kind of meal should leave you feeling full and satisfied (but not stuffed, bloated or sluggish), energized, alert and clear-minded.
