Gerrit Cole had this to say about Aaron Judge’s performance offensively!
Sometimes I feel like he’s salivating for something, gets it, and drills it,” Cole said. “And sometimes I feel like he’s just being a good baseball player, staying up the middle, and drills it the same way. Not all the things are going his way; he’s not looking for slug all the time. He’s just putting better swings than guys are throwing. He’s just -- better.”

Outstanding,” Hyde said of his hitters’ approach. “I thought we grinded out at-bats really well. Gerrit Cole has got great stuff. He’s an ace. He’s an ace for a reason. And to be able to put some runs up on the board against him -- [I’m] proud of our hitters. I thought we did a really good job. Took really good swings off him. Made him work a little bit.
