The New York Yankees beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 9-8 on Tuesday night, in what was an incredible night for Aaron Judge and the Yankees. Judge is just the sixth player in MLB history that has hit 60 home runs in a single-season and nobody has done it since Barry Bonds and Sammy Sosa back in 2001. As you can imagine, fans went NUTS trying to snag the historic ball. Watch the video below:

One lucky fan, 20-year-old Mike Kessler, ended up with the HR ball and returned it to Aaron Judge. Here's Mike after getting the ball and returning it to the Yankees slugger:
He gave the ball back for free, wanting nothing in return, but Judge wasn't going to let that happen. Judge took a photo with Mike and his friends in addition to receiving a signed bat and signed ball. Kessler's friends also received a signed ball too! Watch the video below:
