NY Yankee Greats Visit Iconic Pizzeria In New Haven

NEW HAVEN, CT — Two star New York Yankees players made a surprise visit to an iconic New Haven pizzeria on Thursday.

Right fielder Aaron Judge and designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton stopped by Modern Apizza on State Street, according to a photo shared on the pizzeria’s Instagram page.

“What a surprise! Thanks for popping in,” the post reads, with Judge and Stanton shown with two staff members.

Both players are currently on the injured list.

Judge, the three-time American League MVP, was placed on the injured list earlier this month after being diagnosed with a stress fracture of the first rib on his right side. He could be out until August.

Stanton has been on the injured list since April 28 with a left calf strain and recently experienced a setback in his recovery, according to MLB.com.

The Yankees are in Boston for a four-game series with the rival Red Sox.
