"TAMPA, Fla. -- New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge hit two homers in his spring debut as he prepares for the World Baseball Classic next month. The three-time Most Valuable Player hit a pair of two-run shots, one in the third inning and another in the fourth against the Detroit Tigers. He finished 2-for-3 with four RBI. The 33-year-old has won the MVP in three of the past four seasons, including last year when he hit .331 with 53 homers and 114 RBI."
""We've got the WBC coming up, which I'm excited about, and an exciting Yankees season," Judge said after his performance. "We've got a lot of unfinished business from last season, especially the way it ended for us. I'm just trying to put myself in the best position to help this team win a lot of ballgames." Judge will be part of what looks like a loaded Team USA lineup in the WBC."
