The Seattle catcher is on a historic pace, hitting 38 home runs before the All-Star break. Some changes he made in the minor leagues have fueled his tear.

The New York Yankees’ Aaron Judge and wife Samantha Bracksieck made a rare public appearance on the MLB All-Star Game red carpet

Yankees superstar Aaron Judge is in a home run flurry that has rarely been seen in MLB history. Through his age-29 season, he had 158 career home runs and on Saturday, at age 33, he hit his 350th career home run . Judge homered 62 times in 2022, 37 times in 106 games in 2023, 58 times last year and so far this season has 35 homers in 95 games.

Aaron Judge hit his 350th career home run in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Chicago Cubs. In doing so, the New York Yankees slugger reached the milestone faster than any other player in baseball history.

The New York Yankees' Aaron Judge needed 1,088 games to hit his 350th homer. Former slugger Mark McGwire reached the milestone in his 1,280th game.

Aaron Judge crushes the 350th home run of his career and breaks his 2024 Yankees record of most homers before the All-Star break

Judge, who is hitting .358 following a 3-for-4 afternoon, also easily can claim the most homers of any player through 1,088 games — 50 more than Hall of Fame slugger Ralph Kiner. His 35 homers this season represent the most by a Yankee before the All-Star break, eclipsing his previous best of 34 from one year ago.

USA Baseball announced the decision before Cal Raleigh participated in the All-Star Home Run Derby. The 28-year-old entered the All-Star break leading the major leagues with 38 homers and 82 RBIs.
