Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees knows better than anyone how to obliterate a baseball. With 234 career home runs across 768 games, Judge smashed the single-season home run record when he hit 62 dingers in 2022.With his 14 home runs in 2023 leading the MLB once again, it is safe to say that Judge is a once-in-a-generation hitter. The California native can apparently hit home runs at will.A large part of his ability to crush the baseball comes from his height. At 6-foot-7, Aaron Judge is the tallest active position player in the MLB, and was also a promising basketball and football player in his youth.Prior to the Yankees game against the Baltimore Orioles on May 23, a photo emerged of Judge hanging out with NBA star Karl-Anthony Towns during batting practice. Towns, a power forward for the Minnesota Timberwolves, is seven feet, but looked comparable to Judge.MLB Life@MLBLifeKarl-Anthony Towns hanging with Aaron Judge before the @Yankees game today76461Karl-Anthony Towns hanging with Aaron Judge before the @Yankees game today https://t.co/5w00Rnx1FG"Karl-Anthony Towns hanging with Aaron Judge before the @Yankees game today" - MLB LifeUpon seeing the photo, many fans online could not help but comment on the massive frame of Judge juxtaposed next to one of the tallest athletes around.Eli The Antagonist@UnhUnh_GetMoneyJudge way too large of a human for baseball man twitter.com/mlblife/status…MLB Life@MLBLifeKarl-Anthony Towns hanging with Aaron Judge before the @Yankees game today23Karl-Anthony Towns hanging with Aaron Judge before the @Yankees game today https://t.co/5w00Rnx1FGJudge way too large of a human for baseball man 😂 twitter.com/mlblife/status…Dr. B-funk@StPaulHawk@MLBLife @cjzero @Yankees @TheJudge44 @KarlTowns Holy cow, judge is massive.1@MLBLife @cjzero @Yankees @TheJudge44 @KarlTowns Holy cow, judge is massive.Jovial@JovialSports@MLBLife @Yankees @TheJudge44 @KarlTowns How tf are they almost the same height@MLBLife @Yankees @TheJudge44 @KarlTowns How tf are they almost the same heightA decorated baseball player at Fresno State University, Aaron Judge turned down scholarships in basketball and football to pursue baseball.
