NEW YORK -- Aaron Judge ended the longest home run drought of his major league career in the loudest way possible Friday night.
With the New York Yankees facing a three-run deficit against the Boston Red Sox in the seventh inning, Judge clubbed a go-ahead grand slam for his major-league-leading 52nd home run of the season. The swat unleashed thunderous delirium at Yankee Stadium. MVP chants prompted Judge to emerge for a curtain call.
The blast was Judge's eighth career grand slam. He had gone 16 games, 60 at-bats, and 75 plate appearances since last homering on Aug.
