#16: “A home run for the ages!” – Vin Scully – Hank Aaron’s 715th home run
When Hank Aaron hit home run number 715 to pass Babe Ruth as baseball’s all-time home run king in 1974, Vin Scully was on the call. True to form, Scully took a moment of silence first, letting the roar of the Atlanta crowd take center stage. Then, with his calm, measured tone, he called it “a home run for the ages.” The words felt timeless (just like Aaron’s achievement), and have been played alongside the footage of that historic swing ever since.
