This means the next home run from his bat is going to have a special place in baseball’s record books. So it’s obvious that everyone now wants a piece of history and it’s proving to be costly.

Aaron Judge has remained a sensational player since making his MLB debut with the New York Yankees in 2016. With 200+ career total home runs, ‘All Rise’ is leading the seasonal batting statistics this season.

Notably, the four-time All-Star Judge won the American League Rookie of the Year Award in his second season. He is now a strong contender for this year’s Triple Crown and American League MVP Award. 

Judge slammed his 61st seasonal home run last week. In doing so, he tied Roger Maris’ American League record, which is in place since 1961. Since then, the baseball community and especially the Yankees fan base have been eagerly awaiting the 62nd smash from Judge. Consequently, the ticket prices for the Yankees series against the Texas Rangers at Globe Field have soared.

But before having a chance to witness history, people will have to pay a high price to take a seat. The seats in the left-field corner at Globe Field are up as high as $795. It’s because of being the region where Judge is most likely to smash the ball. While the seats on the opposite field got listed at $150.
