Aaron Judge Hits 50th Home Run in Yankees Win

In a dominant performance, the New York Yankees defeated the Colorado Rockies 10-3, highlighted by Aaron Judge hitting his 50th and 51st home runs of the season. Judge's first-inning two-run homer tied him with Alex Rodriguez for the most first-inning home runs in a single season, while also making him the fifth player in MLB history to achieve three seasons with 50 or more home runs. The Yankees launched five home runs total, including back-to-back-to-back shots from Judge, Juan Soto, and Giancarlo Stanton in the seventh inning, effectively sealing the game. Despite a brief comeback attempt from the Rockies, who scored in the fifth to cut the lead to 4-3, the Yankees’ power proved overwhelming. As Judge continues to chase records, the Yankees' season remains strong, currently holding a 77-54 record. In contrast, the Rockies struggle with a poor season, facing the prospect of losing over 100 games.
