Judge reached 350 in the ninth inning Saturday, his 1,088th game. McGwire hit No. 350 in his 1,280th game, on June 2, 1997, bettering Harmon Killebrew in his 1,319th game.

Aaron Judge didn’t just become the fastest player to hit 350 home runs, he did it in 192 fewer games than Mark McGwire.
Judge has been pretty great as well. With a 3-for-4 performance on Saturday, the All-Star and reigning MVP is leading the league with a .358 average and a 1.204 OPS. He also has 81 RBI. His 35 home runs, meanwhile, are second in baseball – Seattle’s Cal Raleigh has 38 – and the most ever by a Yankee prior to the All-Star break.
