The Night Hank Aaron Made History
I’ve admired legends my whole life, but Hank Aaron’s path to 715 was something greater.
He wasn’t just chasing a record. He was fighting through hate mail, death threats, and a nation unsure how to handle history changing right before its eyes.
But he never cracked. On April 8, 1974, with the world watching, he sent number 715 over the fence.
That swing meant more than baseball.
That was courage in cleats.
That was greatness under fire.
