NEW YORK (AP) — Two games into this postseason, those big-money deals for Aaron Judge and Carlos Rodón haven't paid any October dividends for the New York Yankees.
Judge mustered little at the plate again Monday night and Rodón failed to last four innings in his first playoff start with New York during a 4-2 loss to the Kansas City Royals that squared their best-of-five AL Division Series at one apiece.
Game 3 is Wednesday night in Kansas City.
“If I’m not hitting 1.000, I’m not feeling good,” Judge said. "So just got to keep getting on base for the guys behind me. If they get on, I've got to drive them in.”
