NEW YORK: Aaron Judge blasted the first home run of the 2023 Major League Baseball season, sparking the New York Yankees to victory to begin the 2023 Major League Baseball season Thursday (Friday in Manila) with new rules and familiar feats.

The 30-year-old American outfielder, in his first time at bat since being named captain of the historic MLB club, smashed the second pitch he saw from San Francisco right-hander Logan Webb over the center-field wall for a solo homer in the first inning to start the scoring in New York's 5-0 triumph.
