Aaron Judge reacts after former teammate uses his signature walk-up track
Aaron Judge reacts after former teammate uses his signature walk-up track originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Joe Trevino had a surprise for his former teammate Aaron Judge Monday night. The former New York Yankees catcher stepped to the plate Monday night in Cincinnati, 'Swag Surfin'' echoed through Great American Ballpark. That's the same anthem Judge uses at Yankee Stadium. Advertisement Judge, out in right field, laughed and tipped his cap. 'He was kind of messing with me a little bit,' Judge said, smiling. 'I loved it.' Trevino had tipped off his old teammate during Judge's second at-bat. 'He told me he had a new walk-up song and wanted me to check it out,' Judge told reporters. 'So when I heard that, I was kind of laughing a little bit.'

Behind the scenes, Yankees manager Aaron Boone met Trevino quietly on the field before the game and gave him his 2022 AL championship ring in private, according to Bryan Hoch. Just the two of them. When Austin Wells stepped into the box, he said he told his former mentor that he loved him. Trevino's response? Advertisement "He told me he loved me, too," Wells told reporters. Trevino, dealt to the Reds last winter for reliever Fernando Cruz, has found success in Cincinnati—something Judge wasn't surprised to see. 'Trevi was one of my favorite teammates over here,' Judge said. 'One of the best. Such a hard worker, always with the team. You see the success he's having over there—it's not by chance.' The Yankees moved on with Wells as their everyday catcher and J.C. Escarra backing him up on a cheaper deal. But Monday night made one thing clear: Trevino's impact in the Bronx hasn't faded.

Diontae Johnson reveals reason he refused to enter game for Ravens that led to suspension
If Baltimore was too cold for Diontae Johnson, then he may have wanted to do a little bit more research on Cleveland weather before he signed with the Browns. Johnson, who played for three different teams during the 2024 season, admitted in an interview on the 'Sports & Suits' podcast earlier this month that he had refused to go into a game that the Ravens played on Dec. 1 against the Eagles, a Week 13 loss. The Baltimore area experienced a day in which the high was 44 degrees and the low was 21 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.

Getty Images 'End of the third going into the fourth, they were like, 'Tae, we need you,'' Johnson explained during the episode. 'I was like, 'Nah, I don't think it's a good idea for me.' Like, my legs are already ice cold and I didn't wanna go out there and put bad stuff on film.' The Ravens suspended Johnson for the following game after his refusal, and it eventually led to a breakup between the receiver, who Baltimore acquired from Carolina at the trade deadline, and the team with his release in mid-December. Advertisement He was picked up by the Texans and didn't last long there either, making it two games before he 'checked out mentally' after he said the Texans were prioritizing their younger guys for playing time. Johnson was cut after two games, and he reportedly became visibly upset and had to be calmed down by teammates after the playoff win over the Chargers, with the displeasure over his role leading to his release. Diontae Johnson looks on before the Ravens' win over the Browns on Nov. 7, 2024, in Baltimore. AP Advertisement Johnson signed with the Browns in April on a one-year, $1.7 million deal. Hopefully, Johnson has prepared himself for the cold weather this year, with average temps in Cleveland in December around 34 degrees, according to the National Weather Service.
