Aaron Judge’s 20th home run of the season traveled nearly 500 feet. (Anthony Gruppuso/USA Today Sports)After hitting his MLB-leading 19th home run of the season in the Yankees’ blowout win over the Orioles on Saturday, Aaron Judge outdid himself on Sunday. [Yankees phenom Aaron Judge is tight-end size, but always a baseball player at heart]Statcast measured the home run at 495 feet, while ESPN’s Home Run Tracker credited Judge an extra foot. In any case, the ball traveled really, really far and really, really fast and was the second-longest home run of the Statcast era (since 2015) behind Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton’s 504-foot home run last season. @TheJudge44, 495 feet <<2 (tie).
