Boston Red Sox legend David Ortiz and New York Yankees sensation Aaron Judge took part in a charity bowling tournament that was held in Times Square Monday night.

After participating in the charity event together Ortiz said of Judge, “That is the scariest thing I’ve ever seen. A guy that big that hits like that, that’s special,” according to YES.

Ortiz explained that he would be scared of Judge because standing at 6 foot 7 inches he can still hit sluggers when most players that tall don’t have that skill. He also says he loves watching Judge because he is so powerful at the plate.

Judge played college baseball at Fresno State and was drafted in the first round of the MLB draft in 2013. Judge did not make his MLB debut until last season due to injury and he is currently leading the league with home runs after hitting 18 so far this season. Judge received the American League Rookie of the Month for  both April and May.

Starting Tuesday night, the Red Sox will be playing at Yankee Stadium for a three game series and Judge looks to continue his already impressive rookie season.
