Yankees' Aaron Judge Becomes Fastest MLB Player To Hit 350 Career Home Runs

New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge reached 350 home runs faster than any other MLB player on Saturday, as the two-time American League MVP's two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning of New York's loss to the Chicago Cubs gave him 35 on the season and 350 for his career in just 1,088 games. 

Prior to Judge's homer, Mark McGwire needed the fewest number of games to hit 350 home runs at 1,280. However, Judge blew McGwire's mark out of the water, beating him by 192 games. 

Judge's teammate, Giancarlo Stanton, ranks ninth on that list, as he hit his 350th home run on April 27, 2022, in what was his 1,341st game. Judge is the fourth player to make that list while wearing a Yankees uniform, as well, joining Stanton, Alex Rodriguez and Babe Ruth.

Judge has had impressive amounts of power since entering MLB in 2016. He's smacked over 50 home runs in three separate seasons, leading MLB in that category with 62 in 2022 and 58 in 2024, with the former setting a new AL record.

This season, Judge leads all players in all three slashing categories — batting average (.358), on-base percentage (.465) and slugging percentage (.739). He's set to make his fifth consecutive All-Star appearance, and will serve as the captain of the American League team after winning the fan vote. 

McGwire also holds the record for fewest games to 400 career home runs at 1,412. Judge has 67 games left to go deep another 50 times and secure that milestone, as well.
