Aaron Judge has benefitted from Jazz Chisholm Jr. batting behind him so far this season and both Yankees sluggers talked about pushing each other to be better in 2025.

Aaron Judge is truly the gift that keeps on giving for the New York Yankees. The superstar outfielder came through for his team anew on Thursday night, as New York successfully avoided a three-game sweep at the hands of the Arizona Diamondbacks in the Bronx.

Coming off his second AL MVP award, Judge fell a triple short of the cycle and is hitting .417 with five homers and 15 RBIs in the first six games this season. He has 320 homers, 175 doubles and five triples in 999 games, and only DiMaggio (853) and Gehrig (869) reached 500 extra-base hits in fewer games among Yankees.

Aaron Judge became the third-fastest New York Yankees player to reach 500 extra-base hits with a three-run homer in the first inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday night, trailing only Joe DiMaggio and Lou Gehrig.

The homer was the 321st of Judge's 1,000-game career, which is significant because a different slugger also had 321 in his first 1,000 games with the Yankees. Babe Ruth had that many after joining the team in his trade from the Boston Red Sox.
