Aaron Judge ties Alex Rodriguez on Yankees' all-time home run list
Share this @internewscast.com

ATLANTA — Aaron Judge is now side by side with Alex Rodriguez.

Up next, Yogi Berra.

Judge drilled his 351st career home run Sunday in a 4-2 win over the Braves at Truist Park.

It tied him with Rodriguez for sixth all time in Yankees history.

“It’s just an incredible honor,” Judge expressed. “Growing up, I spent years watching A-Rod and seeing what he accomplished in pinstripes. He’s a legend and one of the best to have ever played the game.”

“It’s pretty cool, but there’s more to come.”

If he stays healthy, Judge could soon pass Berra (358), with Joe DiMaggio next on the list at 361.

Franchise icons Babe Ruth (659), Mickey Mantle (536) and Lou Gehrig (493) lead the way for the most Yankees home runs.

Judge’s 351st came in the first inning Sunday, an opposite-field blast off Braves right-hander Grant Holmes.

It was his 36th home run of the season, behind only Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (38) in the majors.


Max Fried and Cam Schlittler appear to be in the clear from their respective injury scares after getting through throwing sessions this weekend.

Schlittler, who had been delayed due to biceps soreness, reported feeling well after his Saturday bullpen session and is now set to pitch on Tuesday against the Blue Jays.

Fried, who exited his last start with a blister problem last Saturday, successfully completed his bullpen session on Sunday morning, which has cleared him to take the mound on Wednesday.

“He should be good to go,” manager Aaron Boone said. “Feel good about it.”


A day after drilling a game-winning grand slam, Trent Grisham was out of the lineup Sunday, with Boone wanting to help him manage the hamstring issue that he has been playing through since injuring it in Toronto nearly three weeks ago.

“It’s lingering,” Boone said. “I think he’s doing well with it. I think he’s finding a little bit of an extra gear. But it is something he’s dealing with a little bit.”


Spencer Jones continued his monster tear since arriving at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, crushing two more home runs Sunday to give him 10 in 16 games since being promoted from Double-A.

Jones, who could be the Yankees’ biggest trade chip over the next week and a half (assuming they do not want to move top prospect George Lombard Jr.), is batting .426 with a 1.422 OPS at Triple-A.
