Aaron Judge knows he has had a rough time at the plate recently, but he was hoping Saturday would mark the start of his climb out of hole he recently dug for himself.<\/p>\n

The Yankees right fielder was mired in an 0-for-16 slump with 11 strikeouts entering his at-bat in the ninth inning Saturday. He snapp<\/a>ed out of it with a single poked to no-man\u2019s land down the right-field line, setting up Gleyber Torres\u2019 game<\/a>-tying hit before the Yankees went on to beat the Nationals 4-3 in 11 innings.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been terrible at the plate,\u201d Judge said. \u201cJust being a little overaggressive. Especially with Houston coming in and then facing the Nationals, really trying to just do too much at the plate.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the start of the current homestand, Judge had come out of his time off for lower-body soreness with a hot bat. But that quickly gave way to the skid he brought into Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019ll turn around,\u201d Judge said. \u201cUsually that\u2019s how you start a hitting streak is with a little bloop or a dinker like that. So hopefully we\u2019re on the right track.\u201d<\/p>\n
