New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge on Wednesday night bashed his first home run since April 4 and in doing so ended a 10-game homer-less streak and delivered the go-ahead run in an eventual 4-3 sweep-completing win over the visiting Kansas City Royals.

Aaron Boone was impressed after Judge became the first player in MLB history with 321 home runs in his first 1,000 games.

Aaron Judge will be the U.S. captain at next year’s World Baseball Classic, the same role the two-time American League Most Valuable Player fills with the New York Yankees.
