Baseball Hero

There's a museum in Fargo, North Dakota, that rightfully honors its hometown hero, New York Yankee outfielder Roger Maris, best known for hitting sixty-one home runs in 1961. His 61 in '61 set a new major league record, breaking Babe Ruth's previous mark of 60 hit in 1927. And he did it without drugs (steroids), and remains one of baseball's true hero's. The video below is a well-worn film of his epic home run.
