An unbelievable thing is happening this baseball season. New York Yankees star Aaron Judge is putting up numbers that no one has ever seen before. Fans and experts are closely watching every game, and what Judge is doing doesn’t seem real. His performance is now being compared to legends like Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle, but Judge is doing something even they never did.
Aaron Judge’s record-breaking stats are unlike anything MLB has ever seen
At Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City on Wednesday night, June 11, 2025, the New York Yankees faced off against the Kansas City Royals. The Yankees defeated the game, and once again Aaron Judge stole the show. The star outfielder completed the evening with yet another great performance, raising his season average to an amazing. 394 after 66 games.
So far this season, Aaron Judge has also hit 25 home runs. MLB statistician Sarah Langs claims that no player in MLB history with 25 or more home runs over 66 games has ever had as great a batting average. Mickey Mantle in 1956 had the closest result, batting. 381 with 27 homers.
Here are the top five players on this all-time list, as reported by Langs:
- Aaron Judge (2025): .394 average, 25 home runs
- Mickey Mantle (1956): .381 average, 27 home runs
- Jimmie Foxx (1932): .379 average, 29 home runs
- Frank Thomas (1994): .376 average, 25 home runs
- Babe Ruth (1930): .375 average, 29 home runs
What makes this even more impressive is that Judge is doing this in today’s game, where pitchers throw faster and have more skill than ever before.

After the game on Wednesday, Sarah Langs posted on social media, saying, “This shouldn’t be possible. These numbers are unreal.” Baseball fans are calling it one of the most exciting seasons ever by a player.
Judge hit .322 last season, which was already great. But in 2025, he keeps going back up near .400, a number many thought was out of reach in modern baseball. He’s not just hitting well—he’s hitting better than anyone ever has this deep into a season.
Right now, there’s no sign of Aaron Judge slowing down. Every time his average drops slightly, he bounces back with big hits. With 96 games left in the regular season, fans can’t wait to see how far he can go.
