- Judge’s 60th homer matches Babe Ruth’s single-season high
- Yankees star leads major leagues with 128 RBIs for season
Aaron Judge hit his 60th home run Tuesday night, matching Babe Ruth and moving within one of Roger Maris’s American League season record.
The New York Yankees slugger drove a 3-1 sinker from Pittsburgh’s Wil Crowe 430 feet to the left field seats leading off the ninth inning. Judge’s third home run in two games and ninth in September thrilled a screaming crowd at Yankee Stadium. He answered pleas for a curtain call despite New York’s 8-5 deficit.
