The Yankees Aaron Judge recently set the franchise record for most home runs before the ASG with 34. Zoiks! Does anyone realize the ASG is late this season on July 16?

For those keeping track, the Yankees have only played 97 games to date, and for those short on math, that’s 16 more than half a season 81/162=50%.

While the sports world a large is loath to adjust season statistics for the NFL and apply asterisks where needed, sensible baseball fans have to do the math when discussing half-seasons.
