Yankees' Aaron Judge hits a home run in a way he never has before image

Everyone wanted to know what Aaron Judge would look like in Coors Field.

Before Friday, the home of the Colorado Rockies was the only MLB stadium Judge had never played in.

After rocketing a single up the middle in his first at bat, Judge showed his power still plays just fine in the thin air in Denver.

In his third at bat, Judge turned on a ball down the line and left the yard for his 17th home run of the season.

The homer also pushed Judge's season average back up to .400 here on May 23.

There's nothing Judge can't do.

It's not exactly a surprise that he hit a homer in the most hitter-friendly park in baseball, but it's still cool to see.

Pretty much everywhere else in baseball has gotten to see the Judge home run experience, and now Coors Field has, too.

The Rockies have seen plenty. Judge now has five homers in seven career games against Colorado, all of which had been in the Bronx before this one.
