Roger Maris Jr. is again annoying MLB fans with home run record takes.
On Tuesday night, Aaron Judge finally broke Roger Maris’ AL single-season homerun record after blasting his 62nd home run of the season.

Immediately after Judge hit the record-breaking homer, Maris Jr. took to Twitter and declared Judge the “clean home run king.”
“Congratulations to Aaron Judge and his family on Aaron’s historic home run number 62! It has definitely been a baseball season to remember. You are all class and someone who should be revered. For the MAJORITY of the fans, we can now celebrate a new CLEAN HOME RUN KING!!”

It didn’t take long for MLB fans to troll Maris Jr. with Barry Bonds videos.
“We could celebrate the “clean home run king”, whatever that means, or we could watch this two minute collage of balanced breakfast Barry Bonds nuking balls out of the park and into the bay”

All hail the Homerun King #Bonds. Nobody will ever beat Barry the best to ever do it. Go look at his stats and you'll understand https://t.co/623IifM5M3 pic.twitter.com/6XrAcFTWQe
