Aaron Judge, Mike Trout join Yankees legends in incredibly rare MLB history originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . There have been very few players in baseball history better than Aaron Judge and Mike Trout.

And on Monday night, the New York Yankees took on the Los Angeles Angels , meaning those two legends got to share one field. They made the most of the stage. Judge homered twice.

Trout homered twice. In the end, the Yankees won a wild 11-10 game, which almost managed to overshadow these two all-timers. Almost.

But it's actually one of the rarest occurrences in baseball history for this duo. Only three times before this had two multi-time MVPs (at the time of the game) hit multiple home runs in the same game, according to MLB Network's Sarah Langs . The first time was in 1956 in the National League, when Roy Campanella did it for the Dodgers and Stan Musial did it for the Cardinals.
