Even MVP favorite Aaron Judges isn’t safe from the scorn of Yankees fans.
On Saturday night, Judge struggled when he went 0-4 and struck out two times.

During the game, Judge had a bad miscommunication in the outfield which led to an error. The error ended up costing the Yankees when the Astros hit a two-run homer moments later.

MLB fans were confused as to why the team would boo Judge.
Yankees fans booing Aaron Judge after all he did this season is really pathetic.

I can’t believe Yankees fans are booing Aaron Judge. How classless do you have to be to boo a player who hit 62 home runs for you in the regular season just because you’re upset with playoff performance. It’s not worth it.
