Aaron Judge Can Follow These Roger Maris\’ Practices To Ace The Game And Lead The Yankees To World Series Title!

Why did Aaron Judge become the male athlete of the year, joining the list of legends? How did he become the 2022 MVP? And became Yankees captain after eight years? By breaking the record of Roger Maris. Aaron Judge made 62 home runs, the most any baseball player has ever made in MLB history. He broke the record of Maris, who made 61 home runs in 1961, breaking Babe Ruth\’s record and setting the record for the highest home run in a season that stayed for 37 years. Aaron Judge is probably getting on the path that Maris went on. And with this, he needs to have the same mindset also.

However, who are we to say that? But, when the son of Roger Maris himself says so, it becomes important to discuss about it. Kevin Maris recently came out to compare Aaron Judge with his dad as they both never realized what they were gonna do one day. After seeing the performance of Judge in 2022, Roger Maris Jr. said, \”That year [ 1961] was an anomaly year.\” He believes that it is not that he was not capable of doing anything like breaking records, but one has to understand that it was an \”amazing year\” And yes, it was a great task to make the home runs. One does not expect it while going to the field.

Aaron Judge Getting Advice To Focus On The Championship First

He said, \”In 1961, Maris was taken a lot. Except for the [record-breaking] season, Maris had to go through everything that Aaron Judge today has to go through.\” Becoming such a player increased his demand in MLB. \”And then you turn around and have to get started again,\” said Maris\’ son.
In 1962, Roger Maris hit only 33 home runs, approx half of what he made a year before. But it was the Yankees\’ consecutive championship-winning year. However, this time, with Aaron Judge, the Yankees do not enjoy the same success, and thus, Judge\’s record-breaking home runs do matter as much as they did at Maris\’s time, according to his son.

According to Maris, it puts a lot of pressure on the player. But probably Aaron Judge is ready to deal with it. If Judge did not want the pressure, \”he would not have come back to Yankees.\” As Aaron Judge\’s contract period with New York was over, he resigned from a nine-year, $360 million deal with the team. Even after becoming the captain of the Yankees, Judge knew the pressure of the team was not going to get worse than last year. However, at present, all that Aaron Judge has to do is win, just like Roger Maris.

Junior Maris wants to say that even if Aaron Judge fails to make good home runs in 2023 and wins the world series for New York, he will remain the hero. Things only matter \”when you don\’t win. He needs to focus on winning a championship at present [just like Roger did in 1962].\” said Maris.
