While there’s no story out there (yet) about the “how” and “why” surrounding Judge’s new gear, speculation among some fans is that the piece of body armor might be a gift from his brother. You see, the slugger’s adopted older brother John actually lives in South Korea as an English teacher.

Makes sense.
