Outfielder Aaron Judge never tires of making history with the New York Yankees and this Friday he wrote a new page in the record book, by becoming the first player in team history with two three-home run games in an MLB season. .

On August 23 of this year at Yankee Stadium, Aaron Judge made history by hitting three home runs against the Washington Nationals and now this Friday, September 22, he also homered three times.

The first home run came in the bottom of the third inning, with runners on first and second and with the score tied 0-0. The brand new MVP of the American League made the ball travel 420 feet so that it ended up landing between right and center field to give his team a partial advantage of 3 runs.

In his next at-bat, in the fifth inning, he hit his second homer of the night that served to make the score even bigger in favor of the Yankees (6-0). The ball landed again between right and center field, but this time traveling a shorter distance, specifically 379 feet.

Two chapters later he hit one more that was deposited in the RF after traveling 386 feet. With the homer he continued to give excuses to consider his game as the best offensively for a player in the current season.

Additionally, Judge had his 33rd career multi-homer game, surpassing Ralph Kiner for the most in his first 830 career games.
