Injured New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge has been left off the team's roster for the American League Wild Card Series against the Boston Red Sox, which is set to begin Tuesday night in New York.
While Judge remains sidelined due to a calf injury, teammate Giancarlo Stanton has been included on the postseason roster. Stanton had been out since April 24 after suffering strained calf muscles in both legs. The roster also includes the team's center fielder.
The series marks a high-stakes matchup between the rival Yankees and Red Sox, though the Yankees will have to navigate the opening games without their team captain.
