Last year, Judge had 18 first-inning home runs. He's the first player in MLB history to have two seasons of 15 or more first-inning homers, according to Baseball Reference researcher Katie Sharp. It's a remarkable feat, really. Judge has hit 37.5% of his home runs this season in the first inning.

New York also hit nine homers in its second game of the year, a 20-9 victory over Milwaukee on March 29 at Yankee Stadium. That makes the 2025 Bronx Bombers the first squad in major league history to hit nine home runs in a game twice in one season.

The New York Yankees crushed a franchise record-tying nine home runs in a dominant 13-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday.
