""The most important thing's trying to get a win, especially when you can finish off a series sweep right there, so not getting that kind of stings,""
""But you get a chance to tie one of the greatest -- if not the greatest -- Yankee in homers is pretty special. The way Yogi played the game, what he meant to the pinstripes -- you knew how much it meant, being a New York Yankee, to him. I feel the same way. I'm honored to wear this jersey. So, it's pretty cool to be on that list with him.""
""When he came into the dugout, I yelled 'Yogi' out to him. He's certainly earned his way into those rarified-air names with the career he's put together so far.""
The Yankees lost the 3-2 series finale at the Chicago White Sox, failing to complete a sweep of the American League's worst team. Aaron Judge hit a first-inning home run, his second in as many days, bringing his season total to 43 through 127 games and tying Yogi Berra with 358 career homers. New York surrendered a 2-1 lead in the sixth inning, ending a seven-game win streak. Judge said the missed sweep stung but called tying Berra special and said he is honored to wear the Yankees jersey. Manager Boone praised Judge's standing among franchise greats.
