Aaron Judge’s  two-run home run in the first inning of the Yankees’ 8-3 win over the Blue Jays in the Bronx tied him with the Bambino for a nearly century-old franchise record.

Judge now boasts 16 first-inning home runs this season, matching the number Ruth hit in the opening frame of his famous 60-homer campaign in 1927.

Only Alex Rodriguez, who hit 18 first-inning home runs with Texas in 2001, and Mark McGwire, who hit 17 with St. Louis two years earlier, struck more in a single season in MLB history.

Judge’s 426-foot blast against Toronto’s José Berríos gave the Yankees (66-46) an early 2-1 advantage Saturday, and they led the rest of the way.

It was Judge’s MLB-leading 41st home run of the season, putting him on pace for 59. Judge had 45 home runs through the Yankees’ 112th game of 2022, when he set an American League single-season record with 62.

Ford announced a recall of nearly two million Ford Explorer SUVs. The recall impacts all Ford Explorer models from 2011 to 2019.

The company said that A-pillar trim retention clips that run up the sides of the front windshield may not be adequately secured. As a result, the trim could fly off, creating a road hazard and increasing the risk of a crash.

Owners may notice gaps around the A-pillar trim or hear rattles and excessive wind noise if the trim is loose.

Ford said it has received 14,337 warranty claims over the issue but has not received any reports of injuries or crashes due to the problem.

Owners can bring their SUV to a dealership where technicians will inspect and replace the trim if necessary.

NEW YORK — Hoops Cabaret in New York City (48 West 33rd Street), featuring dozens of sexy Hoops exotic dancers, and hailed as “the sexiest sports bar,” will show the DAZN boxing event on August 10, live from Las Vegas, headlined by Vergil Ortiz Jr. challenging WBC interim junior middleweight champion Serhii Bohachuk. 

The 26-year-old Ortiz (21-0, 21 KOs) has only fought three times since moving up to 154 last year, and he’s never fought anyone remotely as talented as Bohachuk (24-1, 23 KOs) during his eight-year pro career.

Bohachuk captured the WBC interim junior middleweight title with a twelve-round unanimous decision win over champion Brian Mendoza in March. 

At Hoops Cabaret, fans can view all sporting events on the club’s giant Mega-Tron Video Wall and numerous HD TVs, giving every seat a clear view of all the action. “And don’t miss the famous after-parties,” said Hoops girl Sandra. “Lots of girls, and fun, fun, fun!” 

Hoops Cabaret combines the fun of a sports bar with the excitement of a gentlemen’s club. Be sure to check out the beautiful Hoops Girls on stage and visit the club’s VIP Man Cave. There are also nightly drink specials.
