TORONTO (77WABC) — Aaron Judge hit his 61st home run Wednesday night against the Toronto Blue Jays, tying Roger Maris’ American League record.
Judge, batting leadoff as the designated hitter, went deep in the bullpen in the seventh inning. In this case — four times is the charm — with Judge walking in his first at-bat, popping out in his second and grounded out in his third at bat.
He had gone seven games without a home run — now he’s looking for number 62 to pass Maris with seven games left in the season.
