Yankees' Aaron Judge reaches 50 homers for 4th time, tying record - ESPN

NEW YORK — Aaron Judge tied a major league record by reaching 50 home runs for the fourth time in hitting a go-ahead, three-run drive for the New York Yankees during the second inning against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday night.

Judge drove a 96.6 mph sinker from Jonathan Cannon 392 feet into the Yankees' bullpen in right-center field for a 3-1 lead.

Judge tallied 52 homers as a rookie in 2017, an American League-record 62 in 2022 and 58 last year. The only other players with four 50-homer seasons are Babe Ruth (1920, 1921, 1927, 1928), Mark McGwire (1996 to 1999) and Sammy Sosa (1998 to 2001).

A two-time AL MVP, the 33-year-old Judge leads the major leagues in batting average (.326) and OPS (1.130). He has 108 RBIs.
