New York Yankees' Aaron Judge hits 50th home run, becoming 10th MLB player to do it twice

ANAHEIM -- A 434-foot drive off Angels reliever Ryan Tepera etched Aaron Judge's name in the major league history books Monday night, as the New York Yankees slugger became only the 10th player in MLB history to record multiple 50-home run seasons.

A sold-out Angel Stadium crowd of 44,537 -- one that included his parents and plenty of Yankees fans -- cheered on the California-born Judge with an "M-V-P! M-V-P!" refrain as he circled the bases following his eighth-inning solo blast that landed in the left-center field waterfall and trimmed New York's deficit to one in a 4-3 loss.
