CNN —New York Yankees and slugger Aaron Judge have reportedly agreed on a nine-year deal worth $360 million, sources told ESPN, The Athletic senior writer Ken Rosenthal and MLB Network insider Jon Morosi on Wednesday. The slugger comes off a historic season with the Yankees. Maris hit 61 home runs 61 years ago in 1961, breaking Babe Ruth’s record of 60 set in 1927. Barry Bonds set the major league record with 73 home runs in 2001. Judge finished his stellar 2022 season leading Major League Baseball in home runs (62), RBIs (131) and runs (133) in 157 games.

New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge belted his 61st home run of the season in Toronto on Wednesday night, tying the American League record set by fellow pinstripe great Roger Maris. Judge has still very been productive in his homerless stretch, drawing 12 walks and scoring five runs as the Yankees went 6-1. Mark McGwire hit 70, then a record, in 1998 for the St. Louis Cardinals. Now Maris' name is linked to baseball's well-liked 2021 home run leader, Judge, 30, a native of Linden, California. Judge has been an elite home run hitter from his first full season in the Bronx, when he hit 52 homers in 2017.

Sep 27, 2022; Toronto, Ontario, CAN; New York Yankees center fielder Aaron Judge (99) celebrates in the dugout with team mates after scoring against the Toronto Blue Jays in the third inning at Rogers Centre. Mandatory Credit: Dan Hamilton-USA TODAY SportsTORONTO, Sept 27 (Reuters) - The New York Yankees clinched top spot in the American League East with a 5-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday but Aaron Judge's pursuit of Roger Maris's home run record remained stalled on 60. But with eight games remaining in the regular season that pressure is being dialled up with each missed opportunity. The seven-game home run drought is the second longest of the season for Judge after a nine-game homerless stretch in mid-August. Tuesday's game marked just the second time in his career Judge had been issued four walks.

Sep 26, 2022; Toronto, Ontario, CAN; New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres (25) and Toronto Blue Jays catcher Danny Jansen (9) look to the umpire for a call at second base during the seventh inning at Rogers Centre. "But I trust every single guy in our lineup, especially the guy behind me Anthony Rizzo, who day in and day out this season has come up in big spots. Yankees outfielder Judge has been stuck on 60 for six games after moving within one of Maris's AL record last Tuesday. The Yankees slugger would get one more shot at tying the record when the contest went to extra innings but with two out, two men on and first base open the Blue Jays issued an intentional walk to load the bases. "You don't want to let the best guy on their team beat you," said Blue Jays starter Kevin Gausman.

Sep 21, 2022; Bronx, New York, USA; New York Yankees right fielder Aaron Judge (99) hits a ground rule double against the Pittsburgh Pirates during the fifth inning at Yankee Stadium. So for the first time in a long while it appears all the stars are, for now, aligning in MLB's favor thanks to Judge and his mighty swing. "There's no real controversy around him, he's a matinee idol, good looking, great personality, liked around the league." Judge will get his next chance to draw level with Maris later on Thursday when New York open a four-game homestand against the Boston Red Sox. "It you remember those ads when McGwire and Sosa were battling it out - 'Chicks dig the long ball', well Major League Baseball executives dig the long ball too," said Dorfman.
