Aaron Judge became the sixth person in MLB history to hit 60 home runs in a single season on Tuesday. What was even sweeter is it kickstarted a huge Yankees comeback.
Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees rounds the bases after hitting his 60th home run of the season during the 9th inning of the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Yankee Stadium on September 20, 2022 in the Bronx borough of New York City.
"It's what I wanted to do," he said."I haven't really been thinking about numbers or stats and stuff like that. I've just been trying to go out there and help my team win. At the time, it was a solo shot in the ninth and still down by a couple runs, but this team, we've always had a never die attitude, fight til the end, and you got four guys right behind me with great at-bats, one after the other against a great closer, it makes it that much sweeter.
" kind of like 'damn, I wish I would've done that with the bases loaded a little earlier in the game.' I was little upset at myself," he joked. Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees shakes hands with first base coach Travis Chapman #75 as he rounds the bases after hitting his 60th home run of the season during the 9th inning of the game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Yankee Stadium on September 20, 2022 in the Bronx borough of New York City.
