On Friday night, the New York Yankees will open up a series with the Milwaukee Brewers in Wisconsin.
They are coming off a series where they took two out of three from the Texas Rangers (at home) in the Bronx.
Aaron Judge continued his incredible start to the season, hitting his 15th home run.
ESPN Insights wrote (on May 6): “Aaron Judge hit his 15th HR in 37 games this season, the quickest he’s reached that mark in his career. It’s also the fastest a Yankee has reached 15 dingers since Alex Rodriguez in 2007 (31 games).”

During their series in Milwaukee, Judge can make MLB history, as he needs just one home run to tie Hall of Famer Harold Baines (384) for 69th on the all-time list.
The three-time MVP is currently batting .270 with 37 hits, 15 home runs, 29 RBI’s, 34 runs and five stolen bases in his first 38 games.

Judge continues to build on a career that will go down among the best in Yankees history.
Right now, the only thing that is missing from his Hall of Fame career is a World Series Championship.
The Yankees reached the World Series in 2024 (and are coming off a season where they lost in the ALDS).
