Henry "Hank" Aaron was 86 years old and he is still revered by many as the all time home run king of Major League Baseball with 755 dingers.
On April 8, 1974, Aaron broke Babe Ruth's all time home run record of 714 when he cracked his 715th home run off Dodgers pitcher Al Downing in the Atlanta Braves first home game that season. He obviously became a first ballot Hall-of-Fame inductee in Cooperstown, NY after his retirement.
RIP Hank.
