"Judge" Aaron Judge
broke the single-season home run record with 62. Yankees fans hope that he will show his skills in in the playoffs. However, Judge only paid 8 hits in the first two games against the Guardians and swallowed 7K without hits. According to data from the US media "ESPN Stats & Info", Judge was struck out four times in a single game in his career in the playoffs, and his opponents were all Guardians.
Yankees and Guardians Division 2 match. The "Stripes" scored a first-time home run with a 2-point home run by Giancarlo Stanton in the first game, but the Guardians, who were behind at the beginning, were not discouraged. They scored 1 point each in 4 and 5, and brought the game into the playoffs. In the first half of the 10th innings, the Yankees passed the ball and scored two hits to capture the lead. In the end, the Guardians took away the victory 4-2 and tied the series 1-1. As the Yankees main gun, Jaggie did not hit five hits in this game and was struck 4 times. In addition to the first game, Jaggie swallowed up to 7K in two games, and boos from Yankees fans were also heard on the sidelines.
According to "ESPN Stats & Info" Twitter , among the players who won the league home run king in the past, there were only 4 games in the playoffs and 4K was swallowed in a single game, and this unreputable record was all handled by Jaj, who won the home run king in 2017 and once today. What's even more coincidental is that Jaj was set when facing the Guardians. He played against the Guardians in the playoffs with 36 games and only 2 am to snatch 27 times. Jaj had no way to deal with this powerful team in the AFC Central District.

Despite the rumbling of regular season guns, Jaj's career data in the playoffs was not very impressive. Although he had 11 home runs in 37 playoffs, his batting rate was only 217%, and his batting rate was only 327%. He swallowed up as many as 58 strikeouts in 143 playoffs. Yankee head coach Aaron Boone is not worried about his situation and believes that Jagie will cheer up again.
