The homer was the 321st of Judge's 1,000-game career, which is significant because a different slugger also had 321 in his first 1,000 games with the Yankees. Babe Ruth had that many after joining the team in his trade from the Boston Red Sox.

Aaron Judge is arguably the best player in today's game. Babe Ruth is arguably the greatest MLB player ever. Although the superstars played around 100 years apart from one another, their New York Yankees careers look quite similar through their first 1,000 games according to Bob Nightengale of USA Today.

Aaron Judge crushed another home run in the New York Yankees' win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday, reaching 5 home runs and 15 RBI through 6 games.
