In a disastrous season in which nearly every Yankee has taken a step back, Aaron Judge has not relented from what continues to be a historic pace.
Despite playing for what has become a long stretch with a torn ligament in his right big toe — and despite playing in games that are now rendered meaningless because of the white flag hovering over the club — Judge is doing it again.
The 426-foot blast caromed off the train that resides in left-center of Minute Maid Park for his 250th career dinger. Aaron Judge belts a solo homer, the 250th homer in his career, in the fifth inning of the Yankees’ 6-2 win over the Astros.“I really don’t think about it,” said Judge, who did acknowledge the impressive company. “When you see the guys that are on the list, especially Ryan Howard, who was one of the greatest power hitters … it’s pretty cool to be on that list.”“Not surprised,” Giancarlo Stanton said of No. 250. “It’s just incredible what he’s been able to do.
