Reacting to the Yankees star's home run, one social media user wrote: “Aaron Judge just hit a home run that almost went over the Royals’ Hall of Fame at Kauffman Stadium. Estimated distance: 469 feet. I’ve been to hundreds of games here and never seen a ball hit there.”
“Just when I think there’s nothing Aaron Judge can do to surprise me anymore he hits a ball where I’ve never seen a ball hit in Kauffman Stadium The greatest I’ll ever watch,” another one added on X, platform formerly known as Twitter.
