Another night, another home run for Aaron Judge.

Judge crushed his 13th home run of the year in the Yankees 6-2 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night.

Judge has now homered in five of the last seven games for the Yankees, and it is not lost on anyone that the Yankees won all five of those games. The reigning League MVP now owns 13 home runs on the year.

Judge wasn’t the only one who went long distance. Anthony Rizzo corked his 10th homer of the year to right to give the Yankees a 3-0 lead.

All the runs went to Clark Schmidt who had a solid outing, allowing two runs over five innings to improve his record to 2-4, and lower his ERA to 6.00.

As long as Judge keeps swinging a hot bat, things are looking up for the Bombers.
