Babe Ruth’s Home Run Record

September 30, 1927
Babe Ruth hit his 60th home run of the season, on this day.

Roger Maris tied Ruth’s record on September 27, 1961. Aaron Judge hit his 61st home run this past Wednesday night, tying Roger Maris’ single-season American League home run record. (Mark McGwire born on October 1, 1963, hit 70 home runs in 1998, so this no longer matters to some. Although, the Bambino was only hopped up on booze.)

And so it goes
