Still the true all time HR king in my book.

RIP.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

When Hank Aaron became eligible for the hall of fame, the all time leader in HR’s, 2B’s and TB’s, who also won 3 Gold Gloves and 2 batting titles, received 97.9% of the vote.

So in other words, 9 baseball writers looked at his resume and said to themselves, hmmm, I’m not quite sure you belong on that level....
