Hank Aaron BLASTS home run No. 714!! Ties Babe Ruth for MOST home runs in MLB HISTORY!

3-1 pitch. There's a drive into left field. That ball is going, going, and out of here. Ruth in the all-time home run parade. As you would expect, a standing ovation. His teammates are there to greet him. A three-run blast by Henry Aaron has tied the Great Bay, Ruth. The record they said that couldn't be reached has just been reached by Henry Aaron. He picked on a 3-1 Jack Billingham pitch, and here it is again. There wasn't much doubt. Pete Rose, I think, knew it was gone the minute it was hit. He starts back, but he knows that it's going to be over him, and Rose, who usually runs right to the fence. And now another ovation for Aaron. As you see it go out of the park again on instant replay, the crowd has given Aaron a tremendous ovation here. 7-14 has been hit. The last time that a home run by that number was hit was on May 25th at Pittsburgh, of course, by Babe Ruth. His last home run. Nobody knew that. There was not much flourish when the Bambino did it because they were used to his record. But Henry Aaron has done it with all the pressure in the world. Good luck for 7-15 and a good many more. It's a great day for you. It's a great day for baseball. 7-15 and a good many more. Now the commissioner of baseball, Billy Coon. On behalf of all the professional baseball, my great honor sending this trophy, symbolic of having tied what many concede to be the greatest record in baseball. It is a particularly proud moment to salute this particular man because he is not only one of the great professionals who has ever played this game, but one of the great gentlemen who has. Congratulations, Henry. Chairman of the Braves, Bill Bartholomew.
