The 2026 MLB season kicks off Wednesday night with the New York Yankees against the San Francisco Giants, and Yankees captain Aaron Judge<\/a> will begin his journey toward a potential third straight AL MVP Award.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Judge is arguably the best hitter in today\u2019s game, but for all the accolades he has accumulated all these years in pinstripes, a World Series title still eludes him.<\/p>\n

For a Yankees player, that\u2019s the only measure of success. After all, the man who held the coveted Yankees captaincy<\/a> before him, Baseball Hall of Fame shortstop Derek Jeter, made sure to constantly preach that during the team\u2019s dynasty.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Judge sat down with a fellow high-profile All-Star, Houston Rockets forward Kevin Durant, for a Boardroom “Cover Story” interview,<\/a> in which Durant asked about the pressure of playing in New York and how badly the former wants to be a champion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s one thing I wanted to do ever since I got drafted, man,” Judge responded. “I wanted to bring a championship back to New York, and I wanted to leave the organization and that franchise better than when I got in there. I just want to leave my mark on there, and hopefully when these next guys are coming through, that\u2019s the one thing, man. You walk into Yankee Stadium, these photos are [Derek] Jeter, it\u2019s [Jorge] Posada, Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle.\u00a0<\/p>\n

YANKEES LEGEND GIVES THOUGHTS ON TEAM RUNNING BACK LAST SEASON’S SQUAD, AARON JUDGE’S CLUTCH FACTOR<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“It\u2019s all these legends. So, it\u2019s like, \u2018Man, I want my picture up there. I want my teammates\u2019 pictures up there. I want to be a part of that.\u2019”<\/p>\n

Judge and his teammates were on the doorstep of breaking the Yankees\u2019 World Series drought during the 2024 campaign but lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games. It was the first time the franchise made it back to the Fall Classic since their title win over the Philadelphia Phillies<\/a> in 2009.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In 2025, as Judge went on to defend his AL MVP title, the Yankees fell short in the ALDS to the AL East foe Toronto Blue Jays, who won the American League pennant. They also lost to the Dodgers, though it was a thrilling seven-game series unlike Los Angeles\u2019 dominance against Judge\u2019s squad the year prior.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Judge understands the weight of pressure. He felt it since coming up through the minor leagues, but also recently with Team USA during the World Baseball Classic, where he also served as the team\u2019s captain. But the pressure is something that\u2019s welcome, especially if he\u2019s having a bad game.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Boos rain down in the Bronx no matter the player\u2019s stature in the league, and whether they\u2019re wearing pinstripes or not.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It was never any pressure, or I got to raise my standard. My standard\u2019s already there,” Judge told Durant. “If you guys are booing me or getting on me, I\u2019m booing myself too right now. If I sit there and think about the pressure and what I haven\u2019t done yet, it\u2019s going to take me off my path of what I want to accomplish.”<\/p>\n

Judge\u2019s focus remains on one thing, and one thing only \u2014 winning a World Series. What awards and accolades come with that are welcome, but at this point, they\u2019re not as fulfilling as what he hopes this new season will end with.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s almost haunting. In Yankee Stadium, they don\u2019t have \u2018AL championships,’ they don\u2019t have \u2018All-Stars.\u2019 They have \u2018World Series Champions.\u2019 and it\u2019s all around the stadium. I see this little empty spot past \u201909. I\u2019m like, \u2018That\u2019s what we\u2019re chasing,\u2019” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Yankees and Giants play at 8:05 p.m. ET to begin the 2026 MLB season on Netflix.<\/p>\n
