BALL & BUDS Remastered #1 & 2 ft. Omar 'The Sports Professor' Fonseca in Honor of Hank Aaron's 50th anniversary of his 715th home run, April 8, 1974. It was the night Aaron broke Babe Ruth’s all-time home run record getting it off of Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Al Downing.
“What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous moment for the country and the world. A black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol.”
- Legendary broadcaster Vin Scully in front of 55,775 fans at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium #hankaaron #baberuth #mlb #baseball #sports
