Watch the moment New York Yankees star Aaron Judge blasted his 62nd home run of the season– and secured the record for the most home runs in American League history.
Judge said he'd like to have the ball that broke the record previously held by Yankees icon Roger Maris — who set the record 61 years earlier in 1961 — but added that it was ultimately the decision of the person who caught it.
"I don't know where it's at, so we'll see what happens with that," he said post-game."It'd be great to get it back, but that's a souvenir for a fan, so, you know, they made a great catch out there and they've got every right to it." Meanwhile, another fan who was less lucky appeared to jump from the stands in an attempt to catch Judge's ball. Local sports reporter Joe Trahan reported the fan is"fine physically" but was ejected from the park for leaving the stands. PR tells me he’s fine physically.
He has been ejected from the park for leaving the stands which is technically considered trespassing.
