MILWAUKEE -- Aaron Judge hit the 58th and 59th home runs of his magical season Sunday afternoon, leaving himself two short of tying the American League single-season record.
In his second at-bat, Judge took a 92 mph sinker from the Milwaukee Brewers' Jason Alexander that leaked over the plate in the second inning and deposited it 414 feet away in the right-field stands. Then, in the seventh inning, he hit a 443-foot homer to left field off Luis Perdomo.
These were his first home runs since hitting a pair against the Boston Red Sox on Thursday, and they moved Judge into a tie for ninth place on the single-season home run list with now-teammate Giancarlo Stanton (2017) and Babe Ruth (1921).
