Yankees phenom Aaron Judge led the way early for the home team in Wednesday night's 7-2 victory.

That got his team on the scoreboard for an early 2-0 lead to provide run support for his pitcher. Judge finished 2-for-3 with 2 RBIs and two runs scored.

Luke Voit - Yankees

The Yankees first baseman was also instrumental in his side's victory in New York. Voit was 1-for-4 in the contest, but that one hit was a triple, scoring both Aaron Hicks and Giancarlo Stanton. That gave the Yankees two more runs, and Didi Gregorius' sac fly to left scored Voit for another. With these runs added to NY's total in the eighth, it helped solidify their lead.
