Watch: Judge hammers 484-foot blast off Stroman

When the New York Yankees need a big hit, it appears Aaron Judge is the man they want at the dish.

With the Yankees clinging onto their hopes of winning an American League East title, Judge crushed a Marcus Stroman offering 484 feet into the left-field stands for an early lead Saturday.

At the time of Judge's home run - his 52nd - the Red Sox and Houston Astros were tied 0-0. The Red Sox ended up winning the division after defeating the Astros, which means Judge and the Yankees will square off against the Minnesota Twins in the AL wild-card game Tuesday.
