went to sleep with score 1 to 1. so commenting as a stat freak.
who will finish a distance second to mvp all rise? i will push for didi (4 hits/walk).
didi batting average is 344, slugging % is 513. #2 only had one year with better avg/slug %.
bravo to tanaka. hopefully he is turned around.
bravo to joe g - al mgr of yr - for handling tanaka & bullpen masterfully.
*The Yankees' run differential for the month of June: +61. … They've scored the most runs, allowed the fewest.
*The Yankees have compiled 90 runs this month. The next closest team is averaging almost 2 runs fewer per game.
*Judge now leads the American League in on-base percentage (.450), slugging percentage (.718) and on-base plus slugging (1.168), as Angels outfielder Mike Trout -- who's missed his club's last 13 games with a torn UCL in his left thumb -- no longer qualifies for any of those categories.
Judge's round-tripper was the rookie's Major League-leading 22nd of the season, and his fourth in the last three games.
