Aaron Judge Shatters Records and Defies Expectations in Epic Subway Series Showdown
By pure OPS, Judge currently trails only Jimmie Foxx and Negro Leagues standout Mule Suttles on the all-time leaderboard for right-handed hitters. Park- and era-adjusted metrics have him nosing ahead of Hornsby and Trout for No. 1. Now, the 33-year-old Judge has (clearly) not entered his decline phase yet, which will ultimately have something to say about these standings.
Today, though, as you watch the giant No. 99 in pinstripes, you can sit back and dream of that speech to hypothetical future grandchildren. You watched the best right-handed hitter in baseball history at the peak of his powers. You watched someone who was beyond compare.
