Hank Aaron

On the 8th of April, 1974, in Atlanta; Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves hits his 715th career home run, passing Babe Ruth as the all-time home run leader. Aaron would go on to hit 755 home runs, a record only bettered by Barry Bonds in 2007. We can imagine how nerve-wrecking it would be in this kind of atmosphere, but Aaron showed his brilliance by hitting that special home run.
