It wasn't the 550-foot bomb Chase Headley was hoping for, but it'll do.
New York Yankees slugging phenom Aaron Judge rang in his 25th birthday in style Wednesday, depositing the first pitch he saw from Boston Red Sox starter Rick Porcello into the visiting bullpen at Fenway Park.
The second-inning shot is also Judge's first home run against the Red Sox, giving the rookie his own entry in the storied rivalry.
