Yankees' Aaron Judge tied David Ortiz's MLB playoff record with epic foul pole home run
Aaron Judge had his moment.
The New York Yankees trailed by three in an elimination game, but two runners were on base as Judge stepped in.
The 6-foot-7 slugger got a fastball in off the plate at 99.7 miles per hour. But somehow, Judge pulled his hands in enough to yank a towering fly ball down the left field line.
It clanged off the foul pole, gone, a three-run blast to tie the game 6-6.
In the process, Judge tied an MLB record.
Before Tuesday night, David Ortiz stood alone in MLB history with six home runs in elimination games, according to MLB Stats .
But now, Judge has six elimination game homers of his own.
