The weakest hits that resulted in runs for the Yankees

On Sunday afternoon, Yankees right fielder Aaron Judge had five plate appearances, putting the ball in play three times. In the first inning, he drilled a pitch from Daniel Lynch 453 feet over the center field wall with a 113.5 mph exit velocity. In the ninth, he had another home run, launching a 98 mph fastball 395 feet at 106.8 mph. Between them, in the seventh, he made contact with the ball on a check swing, sending it a whopping four feet at 21.7 mph. It was the weakest hit of his career and resulted in a very easy groundout.
