Aaron Judge Flips Script on Playoff Struggles, Hits Game-Tying Homer to Lead Yankees to Game 3 Win

Aaron Judge hit his first postseason home run of 2025 to tie Game 3, marking his sixth career homer with the Yankees facing elimination, tying a major league record.

  • On October 07, 2025, Aaron Judge hit a game-tying three-run home run in the fourth inning of Game 3 at Yankee Stadium, sparking the Yankees' 9-6 ALDS victory.
  • With teams trailing by at least five runs when facing elimination were 4-129, the Yankees entered Game 3 down two and trailing 6-3.
  • Down 0-2, Judge swung at a 99.7 mph inside fastball from Louis Varland that ricocheted off the foul pole for a 373-foot shot as 47,399 fans chanted `M-V-P, M-V-P!`.
  • The blast produced New York's first lead of the series and, after Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s homer and an RBI by Austin Wells, set an 8-6 advantage over the Toronto Blue Jays.
  • Judge's homer also carried historical weight, marking his sixth career elimination-game homer, tying Hall of Famer David Ortiz, and his 11th hit this postseason, the most by a Yankee through the club's first six postseason games since 2004.
