00:00And then yesterday, a 4-2 win for the Yankees in Atlanta to take the series.

00:05They got a very early start in this one.

00:08Thanks, of course, to Aaron Judge on the YES Network.

00:11High drive, right center field.

00:14There it goes!

00:16See ya!

00:17A home run for Judge.

00:19His 36th of the year.

00:20It's 1-0 Yanks.

00:23Yeah, did you see the list now at 351 where he is?

00:27He's like, he's going to catch Berra and he's going to catch DiMaggio this year.

00:34He's easily hitting 10 more and DiMaggio's 10 away from him.

00:39Yeah, he's now tied for 6th on the all-time Yankee home run list with Alex Rodriguez.

00:45He's 7 behind Berra for 5 and he's 10 behind DiMaggio for 4.

00:51So he'll be in the top 4, like you said, by the end of the year.

00:55And then he'll just have a, you know, look, the numbers after that are pretty far out for him to reach.

01:03But he's going to be there, isn't he, for 10 years?

01:08Right.

01:09I mean, barring health, which of course you can never predict, but barring him staying healthy,

01:15I think that he should comfortably get to 2 on the entire list.

01:22So he'd be second to Babe Ruth.

01:24Babe had 653, I believe was the number for Babe Ruth when he got there.

01:29So 653.

01:30Oh, you don't think he could hit 200-some home runs in 9 years?

01:35Mantle 536.

01:37So he's at 3, he's going to get past, as long as he stays healthy,

01:42unless something really ridiculous happens to him.

01:45He's going to hit 200 more homers.

01:47I mean, as he is.

01:48Did he have his toe removed last year?

01:50That's a problem.

01:51Yeah, yeah.

01:52So he'll be, we know.

01:55He'll be 4 after this season and he'll just be looking to chase down Garrick Mantle.

02:00And then, you know, Ruth's 300 away.

02:03He'd have to hit another 300 homers in order to get to Ruth.

02:06That might be asking a little too much.

02:08Thank God they only worry about this in the regular season,

02:12because we know he doesn't hit in October.

02:15No, he does not.

02:17They also got yesterday, stunning, a decent performance for Marcus Stroman.

02:22Doesn't happen often.

02:23Six innings, five hits, one run, and four strikeouts for him.

02:27So not a bad weekend for the Yankees.
