Aaron Judge Shatters Records and Defies Expectations in Epic Subway Series Showdown
I don’t know what to do with that other than ascribe it to a different era while noting Judge is still looking up at Bonds’ pure hitting prowess. By OPS+, Bonds owns the two best seasons and four of the top eight, although Judge’s current marks would wedge him into fourth place (with Babe Ruth third).

Judge is the first player since Bonds to eclipse the 200 OPS+ mark – meaning twice as good as the average hitter – in a full-length season, and he’s done it twice. (Soto did it in the shortened 2020 campaign; Freeman is there just past the quarter pole of this season.)
