Tracking New York Yankees star Aaron Judge's chase for 60+ home runs

Baseball history could be on the horizon as Aaron Judge approaches the elite mark of 60 home runs.

The New York Yankees outfielder came one step closer with his 51st homer on Tuesday at the Los Angeles Angels. The Yankees outfielder has had an outstanding season at the plate, batting .296 and logging 110 RBIs. He is one of the reasons New York is among MLB's elite entering the stretch run.

Judge is also on the verge of making Yankees history, only needing 11 more dingers to break Roger Maris' 1961 record of 61 home runs in a season — a mark that has stood for over 60 years. It is also the American League single-season record for home runs.

The quest to see if Judge can reach 60 has captured the baseball world. We are tracking every home run he hits from now until the end of the season.

Here's where Judge stands in his chase for MLB history.

Next game: Wednesday, 9:38 p.m. ET, at LAA (facing Patrick Sandoval)

Judge took a fastball into center field off Angels starter Mike Mayers. He is now tied with Maris for most home runs before September in Yankees history.
