Just heard that Hank Aaron passed away today.

I remember the day he broke Ruth's record.

Another sad day for the sports world.

715 was the only homerun I ever enjoyed watching be hit off a Dodger pitcher.

Yeah, if you grew up in the 70’s... Hank Aaron was a role model.

Very sad.

RIP Hank and thanks for the Great Memories.

I was lucky enough to see Downing's pitch to Hank live on Tv.

Saw him play in the old Fulton County stadium when I was a kid...don’t remember much of it, other than he was a star.

Phil Niekro was on that team. The knuckleballer. He passed away the day after Christmas, 2020.

Nice Post, I always admired a punch of pitcher's but always wanted to be like Knuckle man lol.

Hope Hank and Phil are up there together with the rest of their Brave Great Bros, those 2 especially deserve it.
