New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge hit his 50th home run of the season on Sunday against the Colorado Rockies. Pitcher Austin Gomber spun an 0–2 slider on the outside part of the plate and Judge launched it to center field to give the Yankees a 2–1 lead in the first inning.
Judge, 32, has reached the 50-home-run mark for the third time in his career. He last did so in 2022, when he set the single-season American League home run record with 62 and won AL MVP.
