On April 8, 1974, baseball history’s one of the most unforgettable moment was made, when Aaron Hank hit his 715th home run. Breaking Babe Ruth’s record of 714. It was a massive achievement of Aaron but it was also an accomplishment for Black American and people of color in sports. Throughout his career he faced criticism, discrimination and hostility. Despite that he broke a record that stood for nearly 40 years. This just represents his courage and determination towards his career.
it was such an incredible moment for baseball!!!
The fact that it was truly unexpected it’s a major milestone that he broke a record that stood for 40 years 🤩
The guy had so much pressure like the whole world was watching him and he still did it with such grace and humility that's a true sportsman ❤️
And its not only the record-breaking moment. He was a trailblazer in so many other ways
@amber Absolutely!! He paved the way for so many other African American players to follow in his footsteps. That's what I call legacy
