The 25-year-old has been on an absolute tear during his first full campaign with the Bronx Bombers, and the league-leading home run total has represented just a portion of his success.
Entering Wednesday's meeting with the Blue Jays, Judge also led the American League in slugging percentage (.795), OPS (1.219) and OPS+ (227) while posting a .313 batting average.
"He is a little bit like Derek [Jeter] to me," manager Joe Girardi said, according to Christian Red of the New York Daily News. "[He] has got a smile all the time. He loves to play the game. You always think that he's gonna do the right thing on the field and off the field. When you look at him, he's got a presence about him. He plays the game to win all the time, and that's the most important thing."
