US EditionAaron Judge Gets Struck in the Face by a Toss From Yankees Teammate Anthony Volpe
- On July 5, 2025, during the second Subway Series game at the Mets' ballpark, Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was accidentally hit near his eye by a ball thrown by shortstop Anthony Volpe as they exited the field.
- Most accounts place the injury to Aaron Judge just after the conclusion of the fourth inning, though a few reports indicate it happened following the fifth inning, resulting in some uncertainty about the exact timing.
- Judge was momentarily staggered, lost his sunglasses from the impact, had a bandage placed near his right eye, but remained in the game fielding in the fifth and batting in the sixth inning.
- Judge, the Yankees' captain and reigning AL MVP leading several offensive categories with 32 home runs and 71 RBIs, said his eye was "good" after the game, while manager Aaron Boone called it "a terrible week" and expressed concern.
- The Yankees lost 12-6 to the Mets, marking their sixth consecutive defeat amid losing 16 of 22 games, and Judge’s ability to continue playing suggests he likely avoided serious injury.
