Watch: Aaron Judge ties Alex Rodriguez with seven homers in first 10 games

All rise. 

In the bottom of the seventh inning of the opening tilt of a doubleheader between the New York Yankees and Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park, New York slugger Aaron Judge took Philadelphia southpaw Austin Davis deep to left:

It was Judge's seventh home run in his first 10 games, which tied him with a Yankees record held by none other than potential future New York Mets owner Alex Rodriguez

A-Rod achieved the feat in 2007.

Judge's blast gave him the league lead in home runs heading into the second half of Wednesday's doubleheader. New York was the home team for the first game because Tuesday's rained-out affair between the clubs was originally scheduled to occur at Yankee Stadium.
