ESPN | Marly Rivera: There was plenty of buildup for this one, but at last Aaron Judge slugged homer No. 61 in his incredible season in the series finale against Toronto. It came late in a tie game, providing the offensive spark that led the team to the victory, and the game took a short pause as Judge was surrounded by his teammates around home plate in celebration. Judge, as always, was relaxed when interviewed in the postgame, saying “I’m playing a kid’s game and I love this. I love these moments.” Now Judge will have three home games coming up to try and knock out the record-breaker in front of the home fans before heading off for the season finale.
