Aaron Judge Criticized by Little League Coach

Coach Calls Out Yankees Slugger

A Little League World Series coach has criticized New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge, calling him "selfish" and "a disgrace to the game."

The coach, Rich Schenck, made the comments in a series of tweets on Monday, August 22, 2022.

Schenck, who runs the Teacherman Hitting Academy, helped launch Judge into superstardom before his MLB career.

Boone Responds to Schenck's Criticism

A day later, Yankees manager Aaron Boone responded to Schenck's criticism while speaking with reporters.

Boone said he was "unconcerned" about Schenck's comments and that he has "a lot of respect for Aaron Judge."

Boone also said that he believes Judge is "a great teammate and a great person."

Judge Responds to Criticism

New York Yankees center fielder Aaron Judge has responded to criticism of the team from his personal hitting coach.

Judge said he was "disappointed" by the criticism and that he believes the team is "headed in the right direction."

Judge also said that he is "focused on winning a World Series" and that he is "not going to let anything distract me from that goal."

Schenck's Criticism

Schenck's criticism of Judge stems from the Yankees' recent struggles.

The Yankees have lost 10 of their last 12 games and are now 6.5 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East.

Schenck believes that Judge is not doing enough to help the team win.

Judge's Performance

Judge is having a brilliant season, leading the American League in home runs and RBIs.

However, the Yankees have struggled to score runs as a team, and Judge has been criticized for not being able to carry the team on his own.

Judge is hitting .284 with 46 home runs and 102 RBIs this season.

Conclusion

The criticism of Aaron Judge from Little League coach Rich Schenck has sparked a debate about the Yankees' struggles.

Some believe that Judge is not doing enough to help the team win, while others believe that he is being unfairly criticized.

Only time will tell how the Yankees will respond to the criticism and whether they will be able to turn their season around.
