Slugger Aaron Judge said a jab aimed at the New York Yankees from the Boston Red Sox's Hunter Dobbins was on his mind just before he crushed a fastball from the right-handed pitcher for a 436-foot, first-inning homer.

Aaron Judge makes MLB history with 23 homers and a .396 average through 64 games, despite Yankees dropping series to Red Sox.

Aaron Judge gained another six points in his chase of .400. Judge homered twice Sunday as part of a three-hit game that included reaching base four times, but Yankees pitching faltered in an 11-7 loss to the Red Sox. Judge bumped his average to .396.
