Number 99, meet number 77.
Aaron Judge, Luka Doncic.
The pair of superstars met at Yankee Stadium on Monday evening.
Judge is on the injured list (elbow), while Doncic is just visiting town.
The Yankees gifted Doncic a No. 77 pinstripe top, a cool token for the Los Angeles Lakers' generational talent.

— MLB (@MLB) July 28, 2025There's something cool about moments like these.
Two of the best to ever do it at their respective sports, Judge and Doncic surely recognize the work the other has put in to reach the level they have. Few have ever stood atop the sports world like these two, and so in one another, they probably see a lot of themselves.
