In addition to his 755 home runs, he also set Major League records for total bases, extra-base hits and RBIs.

Powerful words from Hammering Hank: "A man's ability is only limited by his lack of opportunity." R.I.P.

Hank was possibly the most consistently greatest superstar ever.

The Legitimate All Time Home Run Champion. What a Record He Left. And He spoke Beautifully. RIP #44.

I watched this on the day Henry Aaron died but I was able to meet him in 1974. His speech perfectly embodied who he was and for all he suffered, not a trace of bitterness was heard in that speech.

@TheBatugan77 2 года назад

Henry's birthday was Feb. 5th...one day ahead of the Babe's. Also, Henry also tied Willie McCovey for the NL home run title. Each wore #44. Each hit 44. And I used to go to Shea Stadium specifically to watch both guys as a kid.

I was 16 when he launched number 715, live on NBC, April 1974. It was a priviledge to watch, and I later had a giant poster of the moment on my wall. Henry Louis Aaron!

There's a video of the show, what's my secret, they had a guess whose secret was he was either in the theater when Lincoln was shot or he saw John Booth get shot, something regarding the assassination of Lincoln.
