It's a star-studded, Goliath vs. Goliath showdown on "Friday Night Baseball" when the Yankees and Dodgers clash on Apple TV+.
New York touts the best record in the American League, driven in large part by the superstar duo of Aaron Judge and Juan Soto. On the heels of a slow start, Judge won AL Player of the Month in May, a month in which he hit .371 with 14 home runs and 27 RBIs.
And Soto has been nothing short of Herculean since joining the Yankees in an offseason trade with the Padres. Through play on Wednesday, the sweet-swinging lefty is hitting .319 with 17 homers and 53 RBIs.
While Judge and Soto is a lethal one-two punch, no team boasts more star power than the Dodgers. To no one's surprise, Shohei Ohtani (.322/.390/.598) is assembling another MVP-caliber year.
And their other glistening offseason acquisition will take the mound Friday: Yoshinobu Yamamoto. The Japanese right-hander has a 3.32 ERA with 76 strikeouts in 65 innings, and has shined since a poor first start.
