Aaron Judge home run record plaque gets stolen so many times it won't be replaced anymore
Aaron Judge credits Fresno State to success in MLB career.
A plaque commemorating Aaron Judge's historic 62nd home run of the 2022 season at Globe Life Field in Texas was stolen for the second time, and now will not be replaced again, according to WFAN's Justin Shackil.
Judge famously broke the American League single-season home run record against the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Field in the penultimate game of the 2022 season. Judge's home run came in the first inning of a nightcap to a double header on the second to last day of the season. The ball, which broke the record last set by former Yankee Roger Maris in 1961, traveled to deep right field and was caught by 35-year-old Cory Youmans in section 31, row 1, seat 3.
That's where the plaque was located both times it was placed there, but now there's just a dollop of cement where the tribute once stood.

The Rangers said a third plaque will not be put up, per Shackil.
It is not the first theft of memorabilia from historic Yankees moments. In 2014, several of Yankees legend Yogi Berra's World Series rings and two MVP plaques were stolen from a museum at the Yogi Berra Museum and Learning Center in Little Falls, New Jersey.
