Yep, Judge is historic.
Aaron Judge continues to make MLB history.
The New York Yankees' superstar outfielder has achieved something before the All-Star break that no player ever has before.
Judge's combination of 119 hits and 33 home runs, through July 7, has never happened before the break, according to OptaStats' Greg Harvey.
The 6-foot-7 slugger still has a handful of games to pad that record, too.
There have been more homers before this point, and more hits before this point, but never by the same player.
Thanks to those big counting stats, Judge is batting .360 and has an absurd OPS of 1.202.

In addition to the 33 homers, Judge has 21 doubles, two triples and 63 singles.
His career-high batting average was last season at .322, so Judge is trying to top that.
He also is working on a career-best on-base percentage of .468 and a career-best slugging of .734.
It's been yet another remarkable season for Judge, and it's just barely more than halfway over. He's got a lot of time to keep making history.
