Good experience: Yankees’ Aaron Judge gets ‘swole’ Caitlin Clark admission
Caitlin Clark talks about her impressions of meeting Aaron Judge of the Yankees. After her incredible run with Iowa and her historic debut season with the Indiana Fever, Caitlin Clark has already established herself as one of the most significant characters in women’s basketball history. She is one of the biggest draws in modern American sports and the most well-liked player in the WNBA. However, Clark is still susceptible to stardom like the rest of us, as demonstrated by the moment the Rookie of the Year favorite met MLB superstar Aaron Judge prior to the team’s home game against the Texas Rangers, the defending World Series champions, on Saturday. She noted at his “down-to-earth” personality, which is a sense many share about the prodigious slugger, but her main takeaway was the man’s size and stature.
Via the MLB’s official X account, Clark informed Yankees broadcasters Michael Kay and Paul O’Neill, “He’s way bigger than people even believe.” “You know he’s large, but when you stand next to him, you realize that he really could play football or pretty much any other sport. Probably probably be really good at basketball, too… He’s enormous. He’s also fairly swole.
"He's pretty swole" 😂

Aaron Judge of the Yankees is a man on a mission. Judge’s 6-foot-7 stature undoubtedly helps him connect with the general public to some extent, but his incredible strength is what has made him a household figure. Because they know he can turn a game around with a single, furious swing of the bat, other teams pitch around him all the time. And when he has the chance, he usually does. After 114 games this season, the 32-year-old has amassed a ridiculous 1.147 OPS, 41 home runs, and a.321 batting average, putting him in position to win his second American League MVP award. Is it a coincidence that he may be in the best physical shape of his life right now?
