After retiring New York\u2019s Paul Goldschmidt to start the game, Kansas City pitcher Noah Cameron walked Trent Grisham on four pitches, bringing Judge to the plate. After Cameron\u2019s first offering to Judge missed low, Alonso made a prediction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMatty, he\u2019s gonna go deep right here,\u201d Alonso said to co-host Matt Vasgersian. \u201cThe way he took that pitch right there, I mean, this is gonna be loud when he decides to swing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He was on the money, though it took another pitch for the prediction to come to fruition. After Cameron\u2019s 1-0 pitch missed inside for a sixth consecutive ball, Alonso wondered if Judge might make Cameron throw a strike before swinging.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProblem is, if you\u2019re Judge, do you wanna do the right thing and take a pitch right here? You\u2019re sitting 2-0. It\u2019s gotta be right place, right time, where exactly you want it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cameron\u2019s 2-0 pitch was right where Judge wanted it. Like Alonso predicted, Judge went deep.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">.@YonderalonsoU: \u201cMatty, he\u2019s gonna go deep right here\u2026 this is gonna be loud when he decides to swing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Two pitches later, ALL RISE for Aaron Judge \ud83d\udca3#MLBTonight pic.twitter.com\/5BImNGPM5k<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/MLBNetwork\/status\/1932586490233606189?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1932586490233606189%7Ctwgr%5Eaee813447aedab9906fe395c9c5df8ea4c8380b0%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fawfulannouncing.com%2Fmlb%2Faaron-judge-home-run-prediction-yonder-alonso.html<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This wasn\u2019t exactly a wall-scraper, either.
