New York Yankees star outfielder Aaron Judge exited Thursday's 4-2 win at the Texas Rangers early because of right hip discomfort, the team said.

Judge struck out in his only two at-bats, once with the bases loaded, before he was replaced in right field in the bottom of the fourth inning by Oswaldo Cabrera.

Thursday's game was Judge's first in Texas since breaking Roger Maris' single-season American League home run mark there last October in the next-to-last game of the season.

Judge entered Thursday batting .267 with six home runs and 14 RBIs in 25 games.
