MLB Note - New York Yankees Judge, Aaron

Aug 17, 2017 - 8:56 AM RF Aaron Judge continued his two-pronged assault on the record books Wednesday, when he went 2-for-5 with a mammoth homer and a strikeout in the Yankees' 5-3 win over the Mets. Judge hit his American League-leading 37th homer in the third inning, a prodigious blast into the third deck in left field at Citi Field. It was officially measured at 437 feet, though most teammates figured it went at least 500 feet. Judge is tied for fourth on the all-time rookie homer leaderboard, one behind Wally Berger (38 homers in 1930) and Frank Robinson (38 homers in 1956). He did grab sole possession of one record by striking out in the ninth inning to extend his streak of games with at least one strikeout to 33, the longest single-season streak by a position player in history.
