6'7, 282 Pounds, playing Baseball, you would imagine to yourself that a man that size could potentially break different records throughout the season and to tell you the truth he has, broke the Yankees single single season home run record thats stood strong for more than 80 years! But it doesn't stop there for the 25-year old rookie. After starting the all-star game in RF and also winning the Derby the night before, Judge entered the second half of the season not really performing the same, his home run numbers lowered, entered the ASG with a .329 AVG and in this 2nd half has a .18191 AVG, his RBIs have lowered drastically, and already has 58 strikeouts. Aaron judge was kinda known for a big strikeout guy after playing the last end of the Yankees 2016 season and coming into the 2017 season he attempted to distract the crowd of his strikeouts with the incredible rookie numbers he put up in the first half which successfully worked, most of the media was very distracted on the fact that this kid with little MLB experience was putting up 30 home runs and the power he generated never failed to enter a conversation about him. But I didn't, he had 108 strikeouts in the first half of his incredible season. Mr. Judge, like I said, entered the second half not really performing the same and his strikeouts were catching up to him and he wasn't performing to the Yankees expectations, he started striking out every 2.6 at bats, the media never failed to notice something this crazy and dug out the possibility of breaking the strikeout record set in 1971 by Bill Stoneman, and soon enough judge had a strikeout, a strikeout, another strikeout and another one, where's the DJ Khaled button when you need it. A plate appearance against the potential CY Young award winner to try and save your reputation as a hitting master, and another record broken. The official consecutive game with atleast one strikeout now belongs to the 25 year old rookie in right field for the yankees. but who's judgin'
