NEW YORK (AP) — Yankees star Aaron Judge was out of the lineup Saturday against Philadelphia because of an elbow injury.
Manager Aaron Boone said Judge went for imaging.
The two-time AL MVP was at Toronto this week.
“Last night was struggling to throw a little bit,” Boone said a day after the in the opener of a three-game series.
Boone wouldn’t speculate whether the injury involved Judge’s ulnar collateral ligament.
“Hopefully it’s something that’s manageable and we can get through it,” Boone said.
