Welcome back to the Aaron Judge Home Run Record Tracker! We’re taking a daily look at where Aaron Judge’s monster season tracks compared to some of the other historic single-season home run leaders in anticipation of Judge potentially joining their ranks. We’ll be going by Team Game because not every player’s seasons were in sync with the calendar days and everyone didn’t play all of the team’s games, which makes this our universal standard.
Just like Monday, the Yankees were off, so we’re going to check in again on some of the other great slugging seasons: 2017 Giancarlo Stanton (59 homers), 1999 Mark McGwire (65), and both 1999 and 2001 Sammy Sosa (63 and 64, respectively).
