Yankees face scare with Aaron Judge, who has bone bruise in right rib

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge was diagnosed with a bone bruise in his right upper rib area, causing him to miss his first start of the season on Tuesday against the Cleveland Guardians. Manager Aaron Boone said Judge would meet with the team's doctor Tuesday night to determine next steps, and expressed hope that it could be a day-to-day situation that avoids an injured list stint. Judge had been dealing with nagging soreness for the past few weeks, which worsened during the weekend series in Sacramento where he went 2-for-12.
