Two years after setting the American League record with 62 home runs, New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge has a chance to break his own mark.
The outfielder has been on a historic tear in recent months, batting .383 with 45 home runs and 104 RBI in 96 games from May 3-Aug. 25. He became the first player in Major League Baseball history with 50 homers, 120 RBI and 100 walks before September.
Judge has 51 home runs entering play on Aug. 28, already the third 50-homer season of the 32-year-old's career.
Only two players in baseball history have multiple recorded 60-homer seasons: Mark McGwire (1998 and 1999) and Sammy Sosa (1998, 1999 and 2001).
