As the Yankees gear up for their World Series showdown with the Dodgers, their support system got a boost from the players’ families, particularly their wives and significant others. Demonstrating their team pride, the group sported matching white Yankees caps with navy brims, reflecting the team’s classic colors.
In a shared photo, Samantha Judge, wife of Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge, was seen holding their dachshund, Penny. The couple’s two dogs, Penny and Gus, have become familiar members of the Judge household.
Major League Baseball’s social media team spotlighted this show of support, sharing the image on their X account and noting the presence of the Yankees’ extended family, including their four-legged companions.
As the series kicks off with two games in Los Angeles, it appears Samantha and the other Yankees supporters have made the trip to cheer on the team from the stands. Amy Cole, wife of New York ace Gerrit Cole, originally posted the photo on social media. Her husband is set to start Game 1, going up against the Dodgers’ Jack Flaherty when the series begins at 8:08 p.m. ET on Friday, October 25.
