Aaron Judge is a father.

The Yankees outfielder and his wife, Samantha Brackseick, welcomed their daughter, Nora Rose Judge, on Jan. 27.

“What an incredible week it’s been,” Judge wrote on Instagram on Wednesday. “Can’t wait for the memories the three of us make.”

Judge and Brackseick announced in December that they were expecting their first child together.

The couple started dating in high school and reunited at Fresno State University. They were married in December 2021 at Montage Kapalua Bay resort in Hawaii.

Judge and Brackseick also have a dog, a dachshund named Gus.

Judge became the Yankees 16th captain after returning to the team on a $360 million deal after the 2022 season. This year, he hit .322/.458/.701 with a 1.159 OPS, 58 home runs and 144 RBIs.
