Posted: June 10, 2014 Filed under: 20th Century, This day in baseball | Tags: Babe Ruth, Baseball, Hank Aaron, history, Jim Bagby, Major League Baseball, MLB, New York Yankees 3 CommentsOn June 10, 1921, Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees jacked his 120th career home run while facing Indians pitcher Jim Bagby. With this homer, Ruth became baseball’s all-time career home run leader — a position he would hold until 1974, when Hank Aaron hit his 715th round tripper.

I’m glad you mentioned that. It’s time to watch that movie again and download it and save it on my PS3.
