Toronto Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano delivered Wednesday night's historic baseball to Aaron Judge.

Judge's 61st home run ball landed in the home team's bullpen at Rogers Centre. Bullpen coach Matt Buschmann was the one to catch the ball that tied Judge with Roger Maris for the American League and New York Yankees single-season home run record, but amid the commotion Romano stepped up to give the ball to Zack Britton, who approached the bullpen to retrieve the ball.

"Anyone would have done it," Romano said. "We just didn't want to give it to the wrong person. I'm sure it would have gotten in the right hands. But when it came in, there were probably 15 people back there and they wanted the ball. So when Britton came over, we made sure to give it to him."

Judge made sure to show his appreciation.

"Class-act move from [Romano], one of the best in the game," Judge said. "Definitely means a lot. I've got to try to find him here and thank him for that, that's for sure."
