The New York Yankees lost to the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday night but that didn't stop Aaron Judge from making some team history not seen since the 1930s.

After all, Soto's presence ahead of Judge in the Yankees' lineup did create more opportunities for the latter to bat with a man on base. He saw more pitches to hit accordingly, so of course he went off for a 58-homer, 144-RBI season that netted him his second American League MVP.

Rodon first saw Judge on June 29, 2017, at Guaranteed Rate Field in Chicago when the lefthander was with the White Sox. He struck out Judge in his first at-bat and got him to ground to short in his second at-bat of what would be a 12-3 Yankees victory.
