Here are some notes for you to follow as you listen. And yes, I will get a better microphone setup haha. I sound like I'm recording at the bottom of a well. I'm bunkering down!
We'll get better. This is just a trial run. Let me know what you think.
Hank Aaron 83
Hammerin Hank 61/115
The Hammer 46
Born February 5. Or February (42) + 5 =
47
February sums to 42. Hence
Black History Month.
47 is often coded with 33. A favorite of
the Zionists
Breaks home run record in 74, the
reverse of 47, with 755 Hrs
Seven Fifty Five = 74
MLB debut April 13th, 1954/
A date with 42 numerology
Final MLB appearance with Milwaukee
Brewers on October 3rd, 1976.
44 for Georgia/Wisconsin
See how his career is just a cycle of
44?
Played 21 seasons for the Braves
21 is significant to Atlanta
Dominique Wilkins (21)
Deion Sanders (21)
This Super Bowl 50 will be 21 years
since Atlanta's last and only championship that was won in 95/59.
Wiki notes:
- "I had the Giants' contract in my hand. But the Braves offered fifty dollars a month more. That's the only thing that kept Willie Mays and me from being teammates – fifty dollars."[15]
“The Braves purchased Aaron from the Clowns for $10,000,[18]
which GM John
Quinn thought a steal as he stated that he felt that Aaron was a
$100,000 property.[14]
On June 12, 1952, Aaron signed with Braves' scout Dewey Griggs.[14]
During this time, he picked up the nickname 'pork
chops' because it "was the only thing I knew to order off
the menu."[19]
A teammate later said, "the man ate pork chops three meals a
day, two for breakfast.”
John Quinn = 50
Pork chops = 49
Dewey Griggs = 66.
The Braves move to Atlanta in 66. The
same year the Falcons began play.
In 1963,
Aaron nearly won the triple
crown. He led the league with 44 home runs and 130 RBI and
finished third in batting
average.[nb
1] In that season, Aaron became the third player to steal
30 bases and hit 30 home runs in a single season. Despite that,
he again finished third in the MVP voting. The Braves moved from
Milwaukee to
Atlanta after the
1965 season. In 1968, Aaron was the first Atlanta Braves player to
hit his 500th career home run, and in 1970, he was the first Atlanta
Brave to reach 3,000 career hits
On June 21,
1959, against the San
Francisco Giants, he hit three two-run home runs. It was the only
time in his career that he hit three home runs in a game.
During his days in Atlanta, Aaron reached a number of milestones;
he was only the eighth player ever to hit 500 career home runs, with
his 500th coming against Mike
McCormick of the San
Francisco Giants on July 14, 1968—exactly one year after former
Milwaukee Braves teammate Eddie Mathews had hit his 500th.[38]
Aaron was, at the time, the second-youngest player to reach that
plateau.[nb
2] On July 31, 1969, Aaron hit his 537th home run, passing Mickey
Mantle's total; this moved Aaron into third place on the career
home run list, after Willie Mays and Babe
Ruth. At the end of the 1969 season, Aaron again finished third
in the MVP voting.
In 1970,
Aaron reached two more career milestones. On May 17, Aaron collected
his 3,000th hit, in a game against the Cincinnati
Reds, the team against which he played his first game.[39]
Aaron established the record for most seasons with thirty or more
home runs in the National League. On April 27, 1971, Aaron hit his
600th career home run, the third major league player ever to do so.
On July 13, Aaron hit a home run in the All-Star
Game (played at Detroit's Tiger
Stadium) for the first time. He hit his 40th home run of the
season against the Giants'
Jerry
Johnson on August 10, which established a National League record
for most seasons with 40 or more home runs (seven). At age 37, he hit
a career-high 47 home runs during the season (along with a
career-high .669 slugging
percentage) and finished third in MVP voting for the sixth time.
During the strike-shortened season of 1972, Aaron tied and then
surpassed Willie Mays for second place on the career home run list.
Aaron also knocked in the 2,000th run of his career and hit a home
run in the first All-Star game played in Atlanta. As the year came to
a close, Aaron broke Stan
Musial's major league record for total bases (6,134). Aaron
finished the season with 673 home runs.
Sports Illustrated pointedly summarized the racist vitriol that Aaron was forced to endure:
"Is this to be the year in which Aaron, at the age of thirty-nine, takes a moon walk above one of the most hallowed individual records in American sport...? Or will it be remembered as the season in which Aaron, the most dignified of athletes, was besieged with hate mail and trapped by the cobwebs and goblins that lurk in baseball's attic?"[44]
Hank Aaron hit his 755th and final home
run on July 20, 1976, at Milwaukee
County Stadium off Dick
Drago of the California
Angels, which stood as the Major League career home run record
until it was broken in 2007 by Barry
Bonds. Over the course of his record-breaking 23-year career
playing Major League Baseball, Hank Aaron had a batting average of
.305 with 163 hits a season, while hitting an average of just over 32
home runs a year and knocking home 99 runs batted in (RBIs)
a year. He had 100+ RBI's in a season 15 times, including a record 13
in a row
Congrats and nice work!!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI'm thinking about a weekly type thing.
Break down the latest findings in a podcast, while posting regularly. Gonna need something better than soundcloud!
I'll probably get it rolling more towards the end of the year.
