Aaron Judge answers in the best possible way.

After the Yankees powerhouse experienced controversy around his shifting eyes in the batter’s box at Monday night’s 7-4 victory — which Toronto took as a potential pitch signal from a base coach standing outside the designated boxes — Judge had some extra motivation going into Tuesday night’s matchup.

In the top of the eighth inning, Judge ripped a two-run home run deep into center, chipping a piece of the WestJet maple leaf logo and breaking a tie that propelled the Yankees to a 6-3 win.

After Monday night’s win, Judge explained he was peeking at the Yankees’ dugout because he was unhappy with his teammates’ chirping of the home plate umpire in a 6-0 game, in which manager Aaron Boone had been ejected earlier in his at-bat.

Yet, the Blue Jays weren’t convinced and got up in arms about it again on Tuesday night, taking issue with where Yankees third base coach Luis Rojas was standing.

The MLB did not find any indication that there were any major rule violations in Monday’s game.

“What’s fair is fair and if our guys are giving stuff away, we have to be better at that,” Blue Jays manager John Schneider said prior to Tuesday’s game. “If things are being picked up from people that aren’t in places they should be, that’s where I think the line should be drawn.

Judge’s eyes came into question after the Blue Jays television booth noticed his eye shifting toward the Yankees dugout during a eight inning at-bat, which he followed with a 462-foot homer — his second of the game.

“I got some choice words about that, but better just to keep that off the record,” Judge said Tuesday afternoon before the Yankees’ second straight win over the Blue Jays.

“Especially with the things that have happened in this game with cheating stuff and to get that thrown out, I’m not happy about it,” Judge said. “But people can say what they want. I still got a game to play, I got things I gotta do. I told you guys what happened and everybody else can make their own story about it.”
