Aaron Judge Ties Roger Maris with Another Monster Blast

Yankees Outfielder Matches Legend's AL Home Run Record

Judge's Historic Season Continues

Aaron Judge has tied the New York Yankees' single-season American League home run record set by Roger Maris in 1961. Judge's 61st homer of the season came in the seventh inning of a game against the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday, September 27, 2022.

The outfielder launched a 400-foot blast over the right-field wall at the Rogers Centre. The crowd erupted in cheers as Judge rounded the bases, tying the record with just four games remaining in the regular season.

Judge's historic pursuit of the record has been one of the most captivating storylines in Major League Baseball this year. He is now just one home run away from becoming the first Yankee to hit 62 homers in a single season.
