Aaron Judge home run tracker: 2 away from breaking AL record

New York Yankees star Aaron Judge hits his 60th home run of the season on Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Current pace: 66 (would tie for third in MLB history)

Games remaining: 15

Next game: The Yankees play host to the Pirates on Wednesday.

FOX Sports’ take: “From his dramatic decision on Opening Day to decline the Yankees’ extension offer to his ever-growing mountain of taters, Judge and his accomplishments have defined this baseball calendar, whether or not he passes Roger Maris’ American League record of 61 homers. He is the story, the center of attention and the MVP.” — Jake Mintz

Contract status: Judge and the Yankees were unsuccessful in negotiating a long-term contract prior to the start of the 2022 season. The All-Star reportedly rejected a seven-year, $213.5 million extension in spring training, and the two parties avoided arbitration in June with a $19 million deal for 2022.
