Who is Aaron Judge's mother, Patty? Yankees captain shares heartfelt message on Mother's Day

Aaron Judge is one of the finest baseball players of today. He recently signed a nine-year $360 million contract with the New York Yankees as its captain. Fans are interested in learning about who his parents are.

Aaron Judge is the son of Patty and Wayne Judge. Both of them are school teachers from Linden, California. They adopted Aaron two days after he was born. He has a brother who was also adopted.

When Aaron was 10 years old, he noticed that he looked different from his parents. His mother then explained all about his adoption to him. Aaron was fine with it because she was the only mother he had known all his life.

Moreover, Patty was very strict in Aaron's upbringing. She emphasized that Aaron first finished his homework. Then if he had time before dinner, he could play with friends or video games. She also knew he was a natural talent with a ball. It motivated him to earn academic and athletic honors at Linden High. He played basketball, baseball, and football in his final years in high school.

Patty wanted Aaron to be a good person. He acknowledges that she is the reason behind him being a Yankee:

“The guidance she gave me as a kid growing up, knowing the difference between right and wrong, how to treat people and how to go the extra mile and put in extra work, all that kind of staff. She’s molded me into the person that I am today.” (via New York Post).
