Aaron Judge becomes the 4th player in the history of the MLB to publish 4 seasons of 50 hours
It is correct to say that ARONON JUNGE does things that have not been seen from Babe Ruth, of a clean player.
The New York Yankees star has become the fourth player in MLB history to publish Four Seasons with at least 50 circuits on Wednesday, joining Ruth, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa. Obviously, these McGwire and Sosa exploits are delivered with asterisks.

The judge arrived with a three -point circuit against the Chicago White Sox.
It was another stellar season for the judge this year, the one who currently favored it to win a third MVP AL prize in four years. His only competition at this stage is the receiver of the Seattle Mariners, Cal Raleigh, who is in front of him in the column of Home Runs but not much else.
The other seasons of the 50 Hommer of the judge are his recruit year in 2017, his first MVP year in 2022 (when he broke the Al record with 62, also considered to be the clean record) and the second MVP year of last season.
In addition to the judge and Raleigh, Shohei Ohtani and Kyle Schwarber also crossed the threshold of 50 counterparts. Before 2025, the only seasons with more than two campaigns of 50 counterparts were 1998 and 2001, making it the first non -steroid year to see this type of power. If Eugenio Suarez (47 Homers) has a last flow of power, it will be the first season to have five of these players.

It is difficult to overestimate how impressive the judge’s race has been in the past four years. After his 49th Homer on Saturday, the judge struck .310 / .438 / .673 since the beginning of 2022. The most next MLB player at his 1,111 OPS was Ohtani, at .996. The distance between the judge and Ohtani was greater than that between Ohtani and the seventh best player on the list, Ronald Acuña Jr.
In a world where the whole striker must choose between contact and power when faced with the speed of today’s speed, the judge is a unicorn.
