Oh my!….. Hammerin’ Hank was one of the best ballplayers ever! I remember running to the TV when he was up to bat! 2020 was a rough year for baseball, losing many Hall of Famers…….now we lose Hank, but He is on God’s team now! SAFE AT HOME!
I was able to see on tv Hank hit his 715th homerun in April of 1974 to break Babe Ruth’s record! Hank was under tremendous pressure, racists threated his life if he broke the Babe’s record! The FBI had to watch over Hank! Shame! Hank and his family went through hell! Hank Aaron faced the evils of racism
YAHOO SPORTS:
Hall of Famer and longtime home run king Henry Louis “Hank” Aaron died Friday morning, his daughter confirmed to WSB-TV in Atlanta. The Atlanta Braves legend was 86.
Aaron, a 25-time All-Star, played in MLB from 1954-76 almost entirely with the Braves organization first in Milwaukee and then in Atlanta. In 1957 he led the organization to their first World Series pennant since 1914. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1982
