Aaron hit the home run at the top of the first inning into the left field seats.
The record was previously held by late Yankees player Roger Maris, who held the record with 61 home runs for, coincidentally, 61 years. Maris died in 1985.
Aaron‘s 62nd home run comes nearly a week after he hit his record-tying 62st home run of the season against the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday (September 28).
Congrats, Judge!
