Judge continues to trail Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh for both the major league and American League home-run leads. Raleigh homered twice on Friday, giving him 38 on the year. Those two figure to spend the rest of the summer jockeying for position in the AL Most Valuable Player Award voting.

Judge made three outstanding catches in right field on Friday night, saving three runs in an 11-0 rout of the Chicago Cubs that extended the New York Yankees’ winning streak to five following a six-game slide.
