MLB fans were treated to such an encounter during Wednesday's game between the New York Yankees and Texas Rangers, as Yankees slugger Aaron Judge and Rangers ace Jacob deGrom crossed paths multiple times during New York's 4-3 win over Texas at Yankee Stadium.

Judge and deGrom met in the first inning, when a pitcher who has tried throwing with less velocity and with more of a varied selection — in an attempt to stay healthy — looked an awful lot like deGrom in his prime: He ignored those secondary pitches and only went with heaters and sliders, though he lost Judge on a six-pitch walk.

Aaron Judge was able to, just barely, sneak a 326-foot fly inside the foul pole at Yankee Stadium for the shortest home run of his career.
