“Because I’ve Been Doing it For a Long Time..” – Tom Brady Celebrates Evergreen MLB Legend While Also Praising MVP Favorite Aaron Judge

While Albert Pujols has already smashed his 700th MLB homer and joined the Ruth, Bonds, and Hank Aaron club, Aaron Judge is yet to smash his 61st homer. However, that can not take the spotlight away from the kind of season the two superstars are having. And Tom Brady took recognition of both.

NFL star, Tom Brady, applauds Albert Pujols on the “Let’s Go!” podcast with Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray. Markedly, Tom Brady has won seven Super Bowls Championships and five Super Bowl MVPs. He also holds the record for the oldest Super Bowl MVP at an age of 43.

What did Tom Brady say about Albert Pujols and Aaron Judge?

Tom Brady, while talking about Pujols and Judge’s consistency, said, “What you’re seeing from a guy like Albert Pujols and Aaron Judge is exceptional talent and consistency over a period of time. And that is something that’s a life long pursuit. It’s not something that just happens overnight.”

Brady goes on to compare his and Pujols’ age, as they’re both above 40 and still playing their sports. He said, “And a guy like Albert Pujols, who I’ve always loved watching. What a great player he is. What he’s done, over the course of his career, he’s been unbelievable. It’s been a privilege to watch him play because he’s playing at the highest possible level, over years and years and years and there’s just so much that goes into it.”

He continues to add, “Because I’ve been doing it for a long time, I have a great appreciation for it. I know the commitment it takes, and its a hard thing to do.”

Finally, he concludes by talking about these players growing up to inspire their children as players. He says, “It’s time to pass the torch on to the younger generation at some point, and it’s a cool thing to see.”

When will Aaron Judge complete his historic chase?

Aaron Judge, who was stuck at 58 homers for a while, smashed two homers in the same game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Since then, through the home series against the Boston Red Sox and one game in Toronto, Judge has gone homerless.

Aaron Judge made his Yankee debut in 2016 and won the Home Run Derby in 2017. Similarly, he repeated the same feat in 2022 and has already smashed 60 home runs. Now, he’s only one homer away from Roger Maris’ 61. To date, Roger Maris holds the record of smashing the most homers in a single American League season – 61 in ’61.
