Baseball All-Star Aaron Judge recently told the press that a relationship with Jesus will “solve all your problems.”
The power-hitting outfielder has long been vocal about his faith in press appearances and on social media.
Judge, who is captain of the New York Yankees, has been a star since his rookie season in 2017, when he won the American League Rookie of the Year award.

He has since been named the American League MVP twice, and he is in the running for his third MVP award this season. He currently leads all of Major League Baseball (MLB) with a .355 batting average, holds second place for his number of home runs (35), and he has 81 runs batted in.
Judge, 33, has hit 351 home runs throughout his career and has a career batting average of .294. He is currently playing his ninth full season.
Last week, Judge played in his seventh MLB All-Star Game. During a press appearance, he was asked by CBN Sports what he would say to someone “who thinks that fame and fortune is the answer to all their problems.”
“Is there something bigger or better that can fulfill that?” Judge was asked.
“Our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ,” Judge replied.
“He’s given me this platform, given me this ability,” he continued. “The fame, getting the chance to do this is great and all, but it’s not fulfilling as much as the relationship I have with him.”

Judge added, “So that’s what I would tell anybody, is build a relationship with him, and that’ll solve all your problems.”
