00:00He is now also currently on pace to break his own American League home run record of

00:0962. He is currently on pace to hit 63 home runs. Aaron Judge hit two yesterday, I believe.

00:17And at some point this weekend, went back to back to back. It was Judge Soto Stanton

00:24all hit a home run back to back to back. So my question to you guys is, will Aaron Judge

00:28break his own home run record of 62 this season? So I was on a I'm gonna say yes. No, no. Listen,

00:37I was on a call. I was on a this is earlier this morning. I was on a conference call on

00:42ESPN conference call. And they had, you know, every pretty much everybody you would you

00:47would know was on this conference call. And one of the executives said, because you have,

00:53you know, a lot of the Yankee broadcasters that work for ESPN in New York. And they asked

00:57Tim Kirkson. Will Aaron Judge the same question you're asking? Will Aaron Judge break the

01:0362? And Kirkson was like, dude, two weeks ago, I was like, nah, you know, he's not gonna

01:07get anywhere near that. He's like, now, I think he'll hit more than 63. Because that's

01:12the kind of tear that judges on. Right. And it's really it. Go ahead. Last year, the number

01:20got to him. And he slowed down tremendously once the number became a part of the storyline.

01:25Right now, the number is not a part of the storyline. When he got up to 59 and 60, you

01:30could see he was he was he was stressing, he was squeezing, and it started to affect

01:34the way he played. So either that will help him because he's already been through it,

01:38and he'll blow right past the number, or he'll struggle again, and the Yankees will suffer.

01:43So I hope it doesn't happen. I hope he goes far beyond it.
