NEW YORK — The Toronto Blue Jays allowed Aaron Judge’s latest home run Tuesday. Their pitchers also succeeded with some big pitches against the New York Yankees slugger.

The Blue Jays will attempt to keep Judge and the rest of New York’s lineup quiet Wednesday afternoon when the American League East rivals conclude a three-game series at Yankee Stadium.

Judge hit his major-league-leading 28th homer and is within one of the Yankees rookie record set by Hall of Famer Joe DiMaggio in 1936. His latest homer only was a solo shot as Toronto evened the series Tuesday with a 4-1 victory by striking out Judge three times.
