Yankees lose heartbreaker to Braves in 11 innings | Rapid reaction

NEW YORK -- Seventh heaven will have to wait.

The Yankees hoped to notch their seventh walk-off win of their remarkable season Monday night.

Instead, they watched with heartbreak as a ball hit the tip of Aaron Judge's glove and fell over the wall in the 11th inning of a 5-3 loss to the Braves.

Ronald Acuna Jr., Atlanta's star rookie, lifted a high fly ball against David Robertson. Judge made it to the wall, put his back against it and leaped. The 6-foot-8 Judge likely wished for one more inch as Acuna rounded the bases and the Bronx fell silent.
