New York Yankees superstar outfielder Aaron Judge isn't resting on his laurels amid a scorching-hot start to the season.

Judge hit his fourth home run in two games in Sunday's 12-3 drubbing of the Milwaukee Brewers as the Yankees completed the sweep.

"We're getting there," Judge said of his start to the season, according to Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News.

The reigning AL MVP has a gaudy 2.461 OPS with 11 RBIs and eight runs scored in his first 11 at-bats of 2025.

"Working on a couple things, and hopefully, these things continue to give us good results," Judge said. "I wanted to try to have a better March and April than I did last season. So I did some stuff throughout spring training, but I think the biggest thing is just this offense. Every time I walk up, there's guys on base."

Judge struggled to start the 2024 season, posting a .754 OPS with six home runs across 31 games in March and April.

The Yankees tied a major-league record Sunday with 15 home runs in the first three games of the campaign. The club has also made waves with its use of "Torpedo" bats.

Despite seeing some of his teammates use the bats with great success against the Brewers, Judge said he isn't planning to incorporate it into his repertoire.

"What I've done the past couple of seasons speaks for itself," Judge said, per MLB.com's Bryan Hoch.

Judge and the Yankees will look to continue their winning ways when they welcome the Arizona Diamondbacks to town for a three-game series beginning Tuesday night.
