Overview

• Judge’s 469-foot blast in the first inning nearly cleared Kauffman Stadium’s left-field Hall of Fame and ranks third-longest in MLB this season behind Mike Trout and Logan O’Hoppe.
• The homer, Judge’s 24th of the year, came off rookie left-hander Noah Cameron, who had not allowed more than one run in any of his first five major league starts.
• It stands as Judge’s seventh-longest regular-season homer and the sixth-farthest recorded at Kauffman Stadium since MLB’s ball-tracking system began.
• His batting average rose to .398 and his OPS climbed to 1.279, giving him a 264-point lead over the next-best player in baseball.
• Judge sits second in home runs behind Seattle catcher Cal Raleigh and is tied with Boston’s Rafael Devers for the American League lead in RBIs.
