Aaron Judge

..........and is it just me, or has Judge's strike zone been huuuuuuge, during the Playoffs..........I mean much bigger then normal?

Even if he's not hitting the ball, I feel like he should have at least a half dozen more walks then he does.

You may have hit upon the answer to the following questions.

Why did Wilt Chamberlain not excel in baseball?

How long a bat would Manute Bol need to hit the curve ball?

It is the whole Yankee team. The Astro pitchers are getting a ton of low and outside pitches called as strikes. It is almost like Greg Maddox with his insanely huge strike zone is still pitching.

The officiating during the Cleveland series was some of the worst I've ever seen. They were calling anything close a strike, like it was a 4 hour little league game or something. It must all be extremely frustrating for Judge because he's worked so hard to lay off the outside pitch and then has to watch it get called for a strike day in, day out. A lot of his K's have been looking.

Yea I noticed a pretty liberal strike zone in the games I saw. At least the umps were consistent calling anything within a few inches a strike for both teams. Nice to see Judge and the Yankees getting back on track tonight. Another comeback would be great to see.

Judge also coming through with men on base.... knocking in multiple RBIs in meaningful situations with 2 outs...really cancels out ks with nobody on base

zero left on base when Judge made outs in game 3... and another walk

Absolutely, I hate to try an make excuses but they've been calling balls bellow his knees as strikes all postseason.

He's getting penalized for being a large human. His knees start higher up!

I dunno if I should grade these 2 cards that I have of his that are numbered to 50. Or just keep them?
