New York Yankees star Aaron Judge heard the frustrations from the faithful at Yankee Stadium on Friday in the midst of a 4-2 extra-innings loss to the Cleveland Guardians.

Judge finished the day 0-for-5 with four strikeouts and moved to 0-for-7 with a walk against the Guardians through the first two games of their American League Division Series. After the game, the record-breaking home run hitter was asked about the boos that came for him.

"Nothing I can do," Judge told reporters after the game of the boos. "I gotta play better, that’s what it comes down to. Didn’t do the job tonight. Especially as the lead-off hitter, I gotta get on base. I gotta make something happen on the base paths, and I didn’t do that tonight."

Expectations have been high for Judge, who hit an AL-record 62 home runs. The hope was that he could also do it in the postseason and be a main part in the Yankees’ pursuit of the World Series title.

The team may have been off just in general.
