I caught AARON JUDGE'S 56th HOME RUN at Yankee Stadium!!

This was THE CRAZIEST DAY. I got 17 baseballs at this game (!!) and gave 16 of them away. Wanna guess which one I kept? Yeah, Aaron Judge's 56th home run of the season, which went direction from his bat into my glove deep in the left field seats.

I bought my tickets months ago hoping to catch a Judge home run. Yes, really! Of course I was hoping he would already be closer to 60 homers (or beyond) but I'm not about to start complaining. I've always loved Judge, and I had NEVER caught one of his home runs at Yankee Stadium . . . until September 24, 2024. So forgive me for completely losing my mind after it happened.

I did once snag a Judge home run at a White Sox game in Chicago (under bizarre/exhilarating circumstances). Here's a link to that video. It's truly wild:

Here's the MLB highlight of Judge's 56th home run:

And as promised, here's a list of ALL the game home runs that I've ever gotten:

Fyi, every baseball that I catch this season is raising money for a children's charity called Pitch In For Baseball & Softball, which provides equipment to help kids play ball. Please consider making a pledge (while also telling Jon Heyman to go screw himself):

Huge thanks to the Orioles and especially bullpen catcher Ben Carhart for being so cool and generous. And uhhh, thanks to Dean Kremer for his role in all of this, haha. (Love you, Dean! And congrats on the win.)

This video was filmed by Rachel Messbauer (who crushed it!), and the editing was a double-Z/tag-team effort. Zac Gutherman (@zg_films) edited everything until the Yankees took the field, and I edited everything after. Yow!! This is one of my favorite videos ever, and I'm so glad to be able to share it with you.

Thanks for watching, please subscribe (if you haven't already), and much love!
