NEW YORK (AP) — A sellout crowd of 46,175 groaned as Aaron Judge left the batter’s box in the first and fifth innings. With 14 games left, Judge leads the AL in average (.317), home runs and RBIs (128) and is positioned to become the first Triple Crown winner in a decade. Pittsburgh Pirates' Roansy Contreras pitches to New York Yankees' Aaron Judge during the first inning of a baseball game Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2022, in New York. O’Neill is not vaccinated against COVID-19 and broadcasts Yankees’ games from home in Ohio. Yankees: RHP Jameson Taillon (13-5, 4.04) starts Thursday’s opener of a four-game series against Boston and RHP Michael Wacha (11-1, 2.61), who is 8-0 in his last 12 starts.
