spoke to reporters in a media room, then a bunch of players did interviews in the clubhouse – Nestor Cortes, Juan Soto and Ben Rice in the middle, DJ LeMahieu and Alex Verdugo at their lockers.
And then when it appeared the clubhouse would be closed to the media, Judge walked in with a big smile on his face and headed to the middle area where most post-game interviews are conducted. As a youngster, Judge watched TV clips of the Say Hey Kid hitting a few of his 660 home runs from 1951-73 playing for the New York and San Francisco Giants and New York Mets. He also saw replays of Vic Wertz being robbed by Mays in the deepest part of center field in the Polo Grounds in Game 1 of the 1954 World Series with an incredible over-the-shoulder grab ... maybe the greatest catch ever!
This was an emotional night for Judge. He’s relieved that his hand isn’t fractured while saddened that one of his baseball heroes is gone.
