Here is a bunch of silly stuff. Much of it is from my childhood. 1974 was a fun year. By that time I was in full pack rat mode. I picked up the photos in the past 5 years. The signed Brooks spikes were a gift from my dad when I finished Grad school. They are his size and have the have his 44 written on the heel. I have seen pics of him wearing Adidas, Pumas, and Converse but cannot find a pic of him wearing Brooks. The 1975-76 Brewers wore these spikes if you happen to have one I'd love to see it.

I was fortunate to see Hank Aaron play. My first baseball game was at Crosley Field in Cincinnati in 1965...Milwaukee vs Cincinnati. Hank broke up 0-0 pitching duel in the top of the 7th inning with a solo homerun over the centerfield fence against Jim Maloney...the only run of the game.

Cool story...I saw him play June 18, 1976 (love baseball almanac). He went 2-4 with a double and a homer. My memory swears both hits were off of a young and electric Vida Blue. However, the almanac is much less romantic. The double came off of Dick Bosman and the homer off of Jim Todd. I prefer my version of the story

I'm named after Hank Aaron. My dad grew up outside of Milwaukee (Janesville, WI) in the 50's and he loved the Braves. All of them.
About 20 years ago I was at a show in Taylor, MI and Hank was doing autographs for $20 a piece. I got photos signed for all my uncles, ants, and they loved them. While he was signing, I told him I'm named after him and he looked up and smiled. It was a great moment for me, and I hope for him too. In little league my nick name was Hammerin' Hank. |
