The hysteria surrounding Aaron Judge and his home run barrage this season has reached a fever pitch, but Melky Cabrera was having none of it on Thursday night.
In front of his home fans, Cabrera let the Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees both believe Judge had done it again with a homer only to reveal that he had made a leaping catch at the wall on a delayed reaction.

More theatrics like this in MLB would certainly help spice the sport up a bit.
It may go against some unwritten rule from eons ago, but Cabrera found a way to liven things up with a bit of drama.
