Aaron Judge's unchallenged ability to pick up the curve has resulted in some long bombs like this one. In fact, against all pitches, the big man leads the league with 18 home runs, in addition to 41 RBIs and a .324 average.

A distant second, Hanley Ramirez has produced nearly 7 runs above average against curveballs. despite just a .253 average and 7 dingers in 47 contests.

In totally opposite fashion, Ryan Zimmerman is straight raking. While producing more than six runs above replacement, he's managed a total of 16 homers on a ridiculous .374 average.

Among those players below the 5-run mark, Zack Cozart and Joey Votto make an elite one-two punch for the Cincinnati Reds.
