Aaron Judge has tied Roger Maris. The New York Yankees superstar reached a magical number with homer No. 61 against the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday.
After fouling off multiple 3-2 pitches, Judge launched a 94 mph sinker off of Blue Jays reliever Tim Mayza over the left-field wall at Rogers Centre and into the Blue Jays bullpen. The two-run blast gave the Yankees a 5-3 lead in the seventh inning.
The 30-year-old Judge tied the American League and franchise record for homers in a single season with the go-ahead blast.
