Overview

  • Judge’s 358th career homer came as a first-inning, one-out solo shot off an 0-2 cutter from White Sox left-hander Martín Pérez in Chicago.
  • The drive was his 43rd of the season, leaving the bat at 112.6 mph and traveling 426 feet to center field.
  • He later doubled off the center-field wall and scored on Cody Bellinger’s opposite-field double.
  • Judge’s blast ties him with Yogi Berra for fifth in Yankees history, trailing Babe Ruth (659), Mickey Mantle (536), Lou Gehrig (493) and Joe DiMaggio (361).
  • Activated from the 10-day injured list on Aug. 5, he has been serving as the designated hitter, and a return to the outfield has been described as possible this season.
