Although baseball is a team sport, a few personalities dominate their respective clubhouses. The New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge is one such player. The 2022 MVP has been a leader on the team and has been the catalyst in the team’s success. It was visible during his absence after the team struggled. Notably, after Judge’s return, the Yanks have been playing better, which has uplifted the dead morale.

Judge’s presence has become more crucial for the Pinstripes if they want to qualify for the playoffs. Because of the same, the Yanks can not concede another injury to their marquee. The same was the call when an incident brought back injury fears. Given that Judge’s injury is the last thing fans want, they were concerned and expressed it on social media while reacting to the unlikable incident amidst the great win.

Though everything went great for the star player, an incident became the highlight, leaving everyone concerned. It happened during the eighth innings while Judge was going back into the dugout. Talkin’ Yanks shared a video on their Twitter profile. It read, “Be careful on that toe man.”

Notably, it indicated the Judge’s toe injury, which kept him out for long. Though he returned in the last week of July, there are reports of him playing with pain. Any more discomfort could create problems for the team. Given the season has entered a crucial stage, Judge’s absence is the last thing in mind of the Yankees. Fans who have cherished Judge since his comeback had similar thoughts on the entire case.
