Superstar slugger Juan Soto hit in front of Aaron Judge with the New York Yankees last season before going to the New York Mets, but the latter is having no trouble without the former so far. Judge went 4-for-6 with three homers, eight RBI, and a double in the Yankees' 20-9 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday.

Following Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees' franchise record nine-home-run performance on Saturday, Judge said that while "nobody can replace" former teammate Juan Soto, the team did a solid job filling the void that he left when he signed with the New York Mets.

Soto became the first high-profile player ever to leave the Yankees for the Mets in his prime, he did so when the Mets won a stunning bidding war with a record 15-year, $765 million deal and he departed a defending AL champion.
