⚾ The Wait On Aaron Judge Is Actually A Treat

Baseball and its fans should relish the chase for the elusive AL home run record. [View in browser]( [FOX SPORTS INSIDER WITH MARTIN ROGERS] In today’s FOX Sports Insider with Martin Rogers: Major League Baseball fans have been waiting patiently for Aaron Judge to hit home run No. 61 ... The road to a Big 12 title and the CFP is still there for Oklahoma, but there is no room for error … and more! It doesn’t feel like it in the moment, on the warped timeline that takes over when everyone is anticipating MLB history, but this is a good thing. As home run-less at-bats turn into home run-less games for Aaron Judge, then into a stretch of dinger-free days long enough now for one writer to dare call it a drought, baseball should be smiling the longer this goes on. Judge, the man-mountain of a slugger for the New York Yankees, has been situated on 60 dingers for the past week, spanning six games and 26 trips to the plate, while spawning a temporary overhaul of how the nation is watching its baseball. America is waiting on 61, to tie Judge with American League record-holder Roger Maris, and for 62, to move him into the AL lead alone, which would mean the only men above him were those whose records came during the height of the sport’s steroid era. It is officially a long wait now, especially when you consider that Judge positively sprinted from 50 to 60 in just a three-week span. But it is also a glorious one. For as the eyeballs of millions have shifted to the diamond weeks before the typical surge in interest for the postseason, they have gotten to see a treat, spearheaded by the man putting together a brutally powerful masterpiece of a campaign.

[BET OF THE DAY] Odds provided by [FOX Bet]( Jacksonville Jaguars at Philadelphia Eagles: Jaguars +6.5 Early Pick via FOX Sports Analyst Geoff Schwartz: When the NFL schedule dropped in the middle of May, I doubt many of us had this game marked as a marquee matchup between two teams on the rise. The Eagles are 3-0 and look like the team to beat in the NFC. They are powered by their trench play, including a defensive line that sacked Carson Wentz nine times on Sunday. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has continued to improve his play, and this offense appears unstoppable, especially when scoring 48 first-half points in the last two weeks. Jacksonville smoked the Colts and Chargers over the last two weeks. This Jaguars squad, led by former Eagles coach Doug Pederson, is built like the Eagles. The offensive line is opening up running lanes and protecting Trevor Lawrence, while the defensive line has gotten after opponents. Rookie linebacker Devin Lloyd continues on his path toward the rookie defensive player of the year with 24 tackles and two interceptions. With both teams having the same blueprint for success, you have to grab the points early in the week with the Jaguars. This line will drop as we get closer to kickoff when everyone realizes the Jaguars are actually good. Also, worth noting the Eagles could jump out to a big lead as they have the first three games. Do not fret. The Eagles were up 38-21 late in the third quarter against the Lions but only finished with a three-point win. The Eagles did not score a second-half point against the Vikings or Commanders. The Jaguars are a team that will not quit and will continue to battle even if they get down.
