Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton Power Yankees Past Mets in MLB Summer Camp Game

Timothy RappJul 19, 2020

The New York Yankees are looking good as Opening Day nears.

The Bronx Bombers smoked the New York Mets in a Summer Camp game Sunday night, 6-0, paced by Jordan Montgomery's five scoreless innings and an offense that battered Mets pitchers to the tune of four home runs.

Aaron Judge (two homers), Gary Sanchez, Luke Voit and Giancarlo Stanton (solo) all homered for New York, accounting for all six runs.

The Yankees didn't just hit homers, they hit bombs:

While they handled the offense, Montgomery gave up just two hits and a walk in five innings while striking out six. He combined with Jonathan Loaisiga (one hit allowed in three innings) and Jonathan Holder (two strikeouts in one inning) to pitch a shutout.

The Mets, meanwhile, managed just three hits. Amed Rosario had two of them. Corey Oswalt took the loss, giving up two runs on five hits and two walks in three innings. He added three strikeouts.

While the game itself didn't offer many positives for the Mets, Jacob deGrom's simulated game earlier Sunday provided some good news:

Less positive for the Mets are two straight losses to the Yankees by a combined score of 15-3.

Granted, these games don't count. But the Yankees appear to be a team ready for the sprint to the postseason in this year's 60-game shortened season. There's little question the talent is in place—keeping star players like Judge and Stanton healthy is the real key after the club's injury-ravaged 2019.

The Yankees looked the part of World Series hopefuls Sunday night. Carrying that into the regular season is the goal now after beating up on the Mets.
