The New York Yankees captain, Aaron Judge, reveals something unusual that he enjoys and motivates him to do better.
Aaron Judge is in the form of his life. The Yankees skipper finished the last season with a record number of home runs. Moreover, as a reward, the Yankees offered him a nine-year contract worth around $360 million, the highest offered to a player of his position. The San Francisco Giants and the San Diego Padres tried their best to lure the outfielder. But the Yankees managed to keep him in their roaster.
Aaron Judge, 30, is one of the best Baseball players out there at the moment. One must wonder what is the thing exactly that drives the outfielder to grind and do better each day. For instance, in a video uploaded by the Yankees on their Youtube channel, Aaron Judge revealed his secret mantra and also listed the one aspect that drives him to work hard.

The 30-year-old Yankees captain, Aaron Judge, received the captaincy baton from Yankee’s former stalwart, Derek Jeter. He is now the 16th Captain of the club. Meanwhile, a few years ago, Judge appeared in a video uploaded on the club’s Youtube channel. The outfielder made a revelation about himself. When asked about the one thing that keeps him going, the athlete had a very unusual and weird answer.
Aaron Judge said that it is the failures that drive him to be better each day. Judge further added that he enjoys failures. He believes that those tough days prepare you the best for the most exceptional wins on the field. According to the Yankees’ slugger, apart from the failure, the love he has for the game of baseball in his heart also brings in a lot of motivation.

Aaron Judge, over the years, has become one of the most crucial players of the New York Yankees. In the last season, Judge scored all-time high 62 home runs surpassing Roger Maris. However, Judge made up his mind to leave the club after its repeated failures to clinch a World Series title. FYI, the New York Yankees have not won a World Series Title since 2009. But, the last-minute intervention by the Yankees owner, Hal Steinbrenner, made Aaron stay. Moreover, the New York Yankees had to offer a staggering deal of $360 million to the outfielder for nine years contract.
Now, the New York Yankee’s hopes of a World Series title rely entirely on their captain, Aaron Judge. Moreover, Judge needs to replicate his last season’s form, if not better, for the Yankees to stand a chance at the championship. Meanwhile, Aaron will turn 31 next season. Therefore, the Yankees will hope that the outfielder stays in the pink of his health and appears in all the games possible.
