After hitting his 60th home run, Aaron Judge is struggling from the plate. Although he also managed to connect the ball one time and hit his 61st HR, it took him eight games to do so. And now, when he is chasing the 62nd home run, the opponent pitchers are letting him walk.

If talking about numbers, the Yankees slugger, has hit only one home run in the last ten games. And most times, the opponent teams have walked Judge. Given the postseason is about to start, the Pinstripes will need their best player more than ever.

New York Yankees fans will go on to war for Aaron Judge

Earlier on Friday, the frustrated Yankees fans decided to take matters into their hands and started chanting cuss words towards the Orioles pitcher, when he walked Aaron Judge from the plate. Notably, walking Judge has become a habit for the opponent pitchers in the last few games.

The Yankees slugger even got hit by a nasty pitch on Friday. And the Yankees fans could not afford to watch their marquee player getting hit and walked regularly.

Taking to Twitter, the Pinstripes fans trolled the Orioles pitcher and asked him to throw a real pitch. The entire crowd started booing and used cuss words for the Orioles pitcher when he walked Judge.

Some Yankees fans also appreciated, Anthony Rizzo, for stepping aside from the plate so that the Orioles pitcher could hear the loud chants. However, Rizzo did not do it intentionally.

A few of the Yankees fans raised a common question why the Orioles are not throwing a proper pitch to Judge? Because they are already out of playoff contention.

Will Judge even get his 62nd home run?

If the opposing pitchers do not change their narrative toward Aaron Judge, it will be difficult for him to smash his record-breaking 62nd home run. Because apart from one game against the Orioles, the Yankees have only one series left to play this regular season.

And given the fact that pitchers are letting him walk rather than throwing a proper pitch, the Yankees slugger will have to do something out of the box to achieve the record. Only time will tell whether he will hit the 62nd HR.
