Aaron Judge moves closer to rare home run feat Juan Soto already achieved

Even though Aaron Judge and Juan Soto are no longer teammates, they continue to compete in the MLB. Now, the Yankees star is close to completing one of those rare feats that only elite home run hitters like them can achieve.

Despite his team’s struggles, Aaron Judge is still having a very good individual season and continues to set new marks and records. He is now approaching a milestone that his former teammate, Juan Soto, completed just last year.

In a recent win over the Cardinals, Judge took advantage of his time as a designated hitter to contribute a home run. It was his 29th home run against a different team, meaning he needs just two more to complete the impressive feat of hitting a moonshot against all 30 MLB teams.

Soto already accomplished this last year while still with the Yankees. While he has never competed for the home run title that Judge often does each season, it’s quite admirable that he completed the 30-homer feat against 30 different teams before the Yankees’ captain.

What Baseball Parks is Judge Missing?

According to stats from YankeesMuse, Aaron Judge still needs to hit a home run at Wrigley Field and Nationals Park. There’s a bit of confusion surrounding this, as he has homers in 29 different parks. However, the list is based only on active stadiums, which means he needs two more home runs to complete the official feat.

The article notes that when Juan Soto completed the same feat, it was a different time, and things have changed. Even though Judge had a home run in an “alternative stadium” like Steinbrenner Field, it doesn’t count toward his total. YankeesMuse also clarified that his 2018 All-Star Game home run at Nationals Park does not count for the accomplishment.

When Will Judge Play at Wrigley Field and Nationals Park?

For the remainder of the 2025 MLB regular season, Judge will not play at either of those two parks, as the next game against the Nationals is scheduled for Yankee Stadium. His next chance to complete the feat will either be in the postseason if the opportunity arises, or he will have to wait until next season.
