That didn't change Wednesday when Aaron Judge on his 25th birthday hit a two-run homer in his first career at-bat at Fenway Park as he hammered a two-run homer in the top of the second inning in his first career at-bat at Fenway Park but that wasn't all he did he also went into the stands to catch a foul ball that was hit by Boston's Xander Bogaerts.
