We’ve been suspicious New York Yankees rookie right fielder Aaron Judge isn’t human for a while now, but the 2017 Home Run Derby proved it once and for all. Judge is not human. Confirmed.
We don’t know if we’ve ever seen a crop of sluggers look more human at a Derby than the batters who came up after Judge. The Yankees rookie has been smashing long balls effortlessly all season, and continued doing just that when he got up to bat at the HR Derby.
Judge beat Minnesota’s Miguel Sosa 11-10 with two minutes to spare in the final, so it’s realistic to think he could have rattled off a record-breaking number of jacks if he had hit first.
The sports world watched in awe, and gave the 25-year-old slugger the acknowledgement he deserved after the impressive performance.
