Yankees’ Aaron Judge bloodied after getting hit by Anthony Volpe throw


Just when you thought Anthony Volpe’s current miserable stretch couldn’t get any worse, it did.

Judge, though, wasn’t looking and the ball drilled him near his right eye.

The ball broke Judge’s sunglasses and left him bleeding near the eye.

After a quick top of the fifth, with Volpe flying out to center for the second out, Judge returned to the field for the bottom of the fifth with a bandage near the eye.

Volpe’s errant throw came a day after he was replaced by pinch-hitter Trent Grisham in the top of the ninth of a one-run game on Friday, the Yankees’ fifth straight loss.

“The competitor in you wants to be out there and help the team and you feel like you can, but those things are out of my control,’’ Volpe said Friday of the move.

“What is [in my control] is just putting in the work and earning those at-bats. Earning every at-bat.”
