The Yankees are rolling. They crushed the Twins again Tuesday and have won four in a row overall. Time for everyone in pinstripes to celebrate — and prank each other.

During Tuesday night's celebration, Bombers right fielder Aaron Judge decided to have a some fun with center fielder Aaron Hicks. Instead of completing the flying shoulder bump, Judge gave Hicks the ol' okey doke.

In other words, Hicks rose for Judge, only to be left hanging.

The Twitterverse is saying Judge's move was payback for Hicks doing the same to him after the Yankees' win Monday.

Not to be THAT GUY, but Hicks and Judge could have hurt an ankle or a knee on the landing (both are fine). It's fun and games until your pranks send someone to the DL.
