Yankees vs. Dodgers Showdown: Judge and Ohtani’s Clash Will Leave Fans Stunned—Who Truly Dominated?
Judge, who’s now hitting .391 on the season, is in rarified air and as June begins, it makes his chase of .400 so impressive and even more real. Hitting with that high of a batting average combined with Judge’s prodigious power is unheard of in today’s baseball and more closely reminiscent of the days of Tony Gwynn or Ted Williams, who was the last player to hit .400 in 1941.

The highest batting average in a full season since Gwynn hit .394 in the strike-shortened 1994 season (110 games) was Larry Walker, who hit .379 for the Colorado Rockies in 2000. Judge hit a career-high .322 with 58 homers in 158 games last season.
