New York is certainly a city of stars and the stars were out on Tuesday night as Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns decided to take in the Yankees and Orioles game.

Towns was hanging out with Aaron Judge before the game at the batting cage and the picture was posted on social media.

It's not often that the 6'7 Judge is shorter than a person he's taking a picture with but at 6'11, Towns had him beat. Judge made sure to give KAT a bat as a souvenir.

Judge is off to a great season for the Yankees, entering play on Tuesday at .299 with 13 homers and 32 RBI. He's got an OPS of 1.046.

He won the American League MVP in 2022 after hitting an American League record 62 home runs.

As for Towns, he also had a productive year for the Timberwolves, helping lead them to the playoffs, where they were beaten by the Denver Nuggets in the first round.

The former No. 1 pick in the NBA out of Kentucky, Towns averaged 20.8 ppg this season. He dealt with injury and only played 29 games for Minnesota, but for his career, he averages 23.0 ppg and 11.2 rebounds. He is a three-time All-Star.

At the time of this posting, the Orioles lead the Yankees 2-0. The O's scored two runs in the top of the first off of Yankees ace Gerrit Cole.

The Yankees entered play at 29-20 while the Orioles came in at 31-16 overall.
