Aaron Judge has already picked up a thing or two from his new teammate.
The New York Yankees star Judge went viral this week for his attempt at a “Soto Shuffle,” the signature move of new Yankees outfielder Juan Soto. During a team batting practice session Tuesday, Judge stepped into the batter’s box and jokingly began doing Soto’s famous hip wiggle.

Soto usually does the move when taking a pitch for a ball. It has become so ingrained in baseball culture that it has even inspired its own bobblehead.
Of course, Judge, a righty hitter and one who is about five inches taller than Soto, looked quite funny putting his own twist on it. But Soto probably much prefers a teammate doing the “Soto Shuffle” on him than an opponent doing so (which has happened in the past).
