Aaron Judge and Will Warren Shine in Yankees’ Victory Over Rangers
In an exciting encounter between the last two American League champions, the New York Yankees defeated the Texas Rangers with a score of 5-2. The game, played this Tuesday night, was marked by the power of Aaron Judge and the excellent performance of pitcher Will Warren.
Aaron Judge hit his 16th home run of the season, a hit that drove in two runs and extended the Yankees’ lead in the eighth inning.

Ben Rice also contributed to the scoreboard with a solo home run and two RBIs.
