TORONTO (AP) --- New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge drew his 23rd intentional
walk of the season in the eighth inning Thursday night against Toronto,
matching Mickey Mantle's 1957 team record.
Baseball began tracking intentional walks in 1955.
Judge matched Albert Pujols (2010) as the only player to receive 23 free passes
before the All-Star break.
Toronto led 6-5 when former Yankee Chad Green intentionally walked Judge with
two outs and the bases empty. It was Judge's fifth intentional walk of the
series, the most ever by a Yankee in a single series.
Judge has 91 career intentional walks.
