Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees has accelerated home run production again.

Judge hit his 28th home run of the season in an away game against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park on the 24th (Korea time).

Judge, who played in the third right field, fired a cannon in his first at-bat after two outs in the top of the first inning when he was 0-0.




Against Cincinnati left-hander Nick Rodolo, he pulled a 94.4 mile four-seam fastball in the middle of the fifth pitch in the ball count 3B1S and went wide over the left fence. The parabolic ball, which was hit by the end of the bat and drew a large parabolic ball with a firing angle of 40 degrees and a batting speed of 107.2 miles, fell 398 feet into the second deck of the left stands.

Rodolo threw all one to four pitches outside, conscious of the power of the jersey, and when it became an unfavorable count, throwing a strike became a real hit.

Judge, who added a cannon after three games against the Baltimore Orioles on the 21st, trailed Seattle Mariners Cal Raleigh (31), the unified leader in both leagues, by three with 28 home runs this season. Raleigh is playing against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field at the same time, and he went 1 for 3 without a home run in 3 at-bats until the 6th inning.

Meanwhile, as a result of the interim tally of the first All-Star fan vote announced by MLB on the same day, Judge received 2,699,483 votes, the most votes in both leagues.

Judge, who is in the AL outfielder category, is likely to become the main player of the most votes for the second consecutive year following last year. MLB.com said, "'Jersey is likely to win the most votes for the second consecutive year for the first time since Alex Rodriguez (2007-2008). Of course, last year's NL MVP, LA Dodgers Shohei Ohtani, should not be excluded. However, to his surprise, Ohtani has not yet won the most votes in both leagues.

Seattle Raleigh came second in the AL with 1,901,389 votes.




In the NL, Ohtani, the designated hitter of the Los Angeles Dodgers, ranks first with 2.52 million votes. The difference between Ohtani and Judge is 177,765, and considering the rest of the period, it seems unlikely that Ohtani will catch up with Judge.
