4/8/1974 Hank Aaron breaks Babe Ruth's HR record


Recommended Posts

I still have a Sports Illustrated from that event. I think it was the Chicago Daily News the next day had a series of color photos of the swing so you can cut them out , put them on index cards and flip through them to recreate it as a a mini highlight reel. I still have every single one of those index cards that I so meticulously glued the photos. Here's an article from TSN on the 25th anniversary of setting the record.
