Aaron Judge leads the American League in All-Star Game votes, but it looks like the Yankees’ rookie sensation could be showcased at Marlins Park a day before the Midsummer Classic on July 11.
According to the Associated Press, Judge — who has a league-leading 23 home runs this season — received an invitation to participate in next month’s Home Run Derby in Miami last week, and has yet to decide on whether he’ll take part in the contest on July 10.
