A birthday gift from my son. “62” tells the story of Aaron Judge and his pursuit and attainment of the season home run record (“clean” not steroid era) held previously by Roger Maris. I was interested to learn more about Judge’s entry into the league and a bit about how he conducts himself as a player and teammate. There was some drama in the recounting of the final days in the season when it looked like he would not break Maris’s record. The book did get a bit redundant as author Bryan Hoch detailed each of Judge’s 62 home runs that season. The story of his free agency period was also interesting to read about. Overall, a good book for a NYY fan.

Parker Fluke A reasonable review. Definitely interesting when a memoir comes out less than two years after the source material even happened, but good to hear there was some good stuff in there. Go Yanks!
