Aaron Judge was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the sixth inning of Wednesday's game against the Twins due to right lower leg tightness, the Yankees announced. Heliot Ramos entered to pinch-hit in Judge's place, per reporting from multiple outlets.
Judge struck out swinging in his first two at-bats before exiting the game. The timing of the injury came shortly after Judge had recently returned from a separate injury, according to one report. The exact nature of the tightness and whether it will sideline Judge beyond Wednesday's game remains unclear based on available reporting.
