Aaron Judge passes Joe DiMaggio on Yankees all-time home run list, after meeting with Trump

President Donald Trump greeted New York Yankees players in their clubhouse and told them they’re going to ‘go all the way.’

New York Yankees captain Aaron Judge has hit three home runs in the two games since shaking hands with President Donald Trump. And Judge's latest homer was a historic one. 

Judge passed franchise icon Joe DiMaggio to leap into fourth place on the Yankees' all-time home run leaderboard Friday night with a first-inning blast against the Boston Red Sox. It was the 362nd homer of Judge's career, surpassing DiMaggio, who had 361. 

Judge reached 362 homers in his 1,130th game. DiMaggio played 1,736 games and hit his last homer on Sept. 28, 1951, at the end of a 13-year career that was interrupted for three seasons because he served in World War II. 

Judge had only just DiMaggio on Thursday, when he hit two home runs against the Detroit Tigers with Trump in attendance to watch the game.

Prior to that game, Trump paid a visit to the Yankees' clubhouse, where he shook hands with Judge and other players. 

Judge went 3-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in that game, his 45th and 46th of his MVP-caliber season. Trump talked about meeting Judge and the Yankees on Friday.
