Aaron Judge is getting a lot of love in New York for tying Roger Maris’ season-high of 61 home runs in a season. Big deal. Chicagoans saw Sammy Sosa hit over 60 home runs three separate seasons and make Major League Baseball the biggest show in town while doing so. Kevin Kaduk and Luke Stuckmeyer talk about the exiled Cubs slugger and whether Judge is really the “true Home Run King” as Maris’ son contends.

Plus the latest in Chicago sports including the sinking White Sox, hobbled Lonzo Ball and Northwestern's new stadium plans.
