The entire baseball community, and New York Yankees fans, in particular, are eagerly anticipating Aaron Judge’s historic home run. He tied with Babe Ruth’s seasonal best 60 home runs record. Another home run will level his total with Roger Maris’ American League seasonal best record. But the wait for Judge’s 61st home run is only getting delayed day after day. 

Aaron Judge has received much acclaim since his MLB debut with the New York Yankees in 2016. He is an effective outfielder and tearaway slugger for the Yankees. Entering MLB reputed as the ‘next big thing’ in baseball, he has lived up to the expectations. Judge is a four-time All-Star player who has already amassed 200+ career total home runs. 

The Yankees have had a dominant reign in the first half because of Judge’s blazing form. When the Yankees had a slump in form during the second half, he again carried his team towards victory. On Tuesday night, Judge’s mother attended her son’s game wishing to see him rewrite baseball history. While her wish didn’t come true, an image of her with her son is melting away netizens’ hearts on the internet.

Aaron Judge has been instrumental in the Yankees’ success and even more so throughout this season. The Yankees fan base has nearly frozen over, awaiting his 61st home run. But unfortunately, his American League record-tying home run is yet nowhere to be seen. Judge yet again got left stranded on 60 home runs in Tuesday’s game.
