The first Subway Series of the 2025 MLB season is quickly approaching on Friday as the New York Mets visit the New York Yankees for a three-game series in the Bronx.

Before one of the most highly anticipated matchups of the season, Judge and the Yankees beat the Mariners 3-2 on Wednesday to take the three-game series in Seattle. The 2024 MVP went 2-for-4 while hitting his MLB-leading 15th home run of the season.

He also caught some attention for the custom all-pink “Double Gum” Nike Air Jordan cleats he wore.

MLB’s official X account showcased them (and his matching batting gloves and protective guards) front and center on Thursday.

Fans were loving what they saw as well.

“Legends do what legends do,” a fan wrote on X.

“He’s not playing baseball he’s chewing scenery 😭” another added.

“Absolute flames 💪” someone said.

“If they made these in regular kicks, I think people would go nuts for them @Jumpman23,” a fan suggested.

Judge continues to be baseball’s most dangerous hitter, now nearly two full months into the season. Through 43 games, the six-time All-Star is batting .412 with a 1.279 OPS, 15 home runs, 41 RBIs, 40 runs scored and a 3.6 WAR.
