Yankees' Aaron Judge homing in on history
Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees
Los Angeles - Muslimchronicle
Aaron Judge belted his major league-leading 30th home run on Friday to surpass New York Yankees icon Joe DiMaggio's club record for homers hit by a rookie.
The 25-year-old sensation led off the fifth inning at Yankee Stadium with a solo blast off Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Josh Hader.
He sent the changeup from Hader an estimated 432 feet to put the Yankees up 4-2.
It marked Judge's third straight game with a homer. He had tied DiMaggio's 1936 total of 29 home runs in a 7-6 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday.
Judge is only the second rookie to reach 30 home runs before the All Star break.
Mark McGwire had 33 at the break in 1987 on the way to establishing the major league rookie record of 49 homers in a season.
Judge's effort came in a disappointing 9-4 loss to the Brewers.
Milwaukee's Jesus Aguilar hit a tiebreaking grand slam with two outs in the top of the seventh and tied a Milwaukee record with seven runs-batted-in for the Brewers.
Milwaukee's five runs in the seventh proved enough for the victory.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led his
