⚾ Graded 2024 Topps Chrome Aaron Judge #CAE6 All Etch Baseball Card — PSA 10 GEM MINT — New York Yankees Captain — 62 Home Runs, 2022 AL Home Run Record — 2022 AL MVP — Linden, California

⚾ The New York Yankees named Aaron Judge their team captain in 2022 — the first player to hold that title since Derek Jeter retired after the 2014 season — and the designation arrived in the same season that Judge hit 62 home runs and shattered the American League's single-season home run record that had stood since Roger Maris set it in 1961. This is the 2024 Topps Chrome Aaron Judge #CAE6 All Etch insert card, graded PSA 10 GEM MINT by Professional Sports Authenticator — the highest grade available from the most respected authentication and grading service in the sports collectibles hobby, for a card that represents the captain of the most famous franchise in American baseball history at the peak of his individual excellence. Condition: NOS.

🌲 Linden, California — Where the Captain's Story Began

🌲 Aaron James Judge was born on April 26, 1992, in Linden — a small community in San Joaquin County in California's Central Valley, in the agricultural heartland of the state, far removed from the bright lights of the major league cities where he would eventually become one of the most recognizable athletes in American sports. Judge was adopted as an infant by Patty and Wayne Judge, who raised him in the Linden area with the values that would later define both his athletic approach and his personal character — a combination of relentless competitiveness, grace under pressure, and the kind of quiet leadership that makes teammates want to follow. Condition: NOS.

🏆 62 Home Runs — The American League Record That Rewrote History

🏆 In the 2022 season, Aaron Judge hit 62 home runs in the American League — breaking Roger Maris' 1961 AL record of 61 and establishing the most legitimate and universally recognized single-season home run mark in the history of the sport. The achievement arrived in the full context of modern baseball awareness — tracked at every at-bat, documented by the most comprehensive media coverage in sports history, and celebrated across every platform simultaneously — making it one of the most universally witnessed individual athletic records in the history of American professional sports. The same season produced the 2022 American League MVP Award and the team captaincy that cemented Judge's place in Yankees history. Condition: NOS.
