Aaron Judge Ties Joe DiMaggio With Two Home Runs in Yankees 9-3 Win

Aaron Judge tied Joe DiMaggio for fourth place on the New York Yankees' all-time home run list by hitting two home runs in a 9-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers at Yankee Stadium. This milestone was achieved on a night when the Yankees also held a ceremony commemorating the 24th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, with President Donald Trump in attendance. Judge’s two homers, including a 434-foot blast, helped the Yankees snap a brief losing streak and maintain their position in the American League East race. Alongside Judge's achievement, the team matched a franchise record with seven players hitting at least 20 home runs this season. Yankees manager Aaron Boone praised Judge's accomplishment, highlighting his leadership as the team prepares for upcoming critical games against the Boston Red Sox. Judge downplayed the milestone's significance, focusing instead on the team’s future challenges.
