At the Bronx, the new and famous couple not only met fans but also met the budding Yankee outfielder Aaron Judge. The three of them even got a picture clicked, and the number 99 overshadowed the couple. 

Aaron Judge towered over Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez

With a height of 6’7″, when Aaron Judge stood beside ARod and Lopez, he easily dwarfed the six-foot-three former player, Alex Rodriguez. Jennifer Lopez, however, is already shorter than A-Rod, so she looked even shorter.
