Judge also made more MLB history in the series.
He has now taken sole possession of 75th on the all-time home runs list.
@RobBballHistory: “Aaron Judge hit his 380th career HR, passing Hall of Famers Orlando Cepeda and Tony Pérez for 75th on the All Time HR list.”
Judge is in the middle of another fantastic season, as he is batting .262 with 12 home runs, 20 RBI’s, 25 runs and five stolen bases.
It’s very possible he could win his fourth MVP in the last five years.
The future Hall of Famer is in his 11th season playing for the Yankees.
