The Hall of Famer holds a host of records, from the most runs batted in (2,297), the most seasons as an all-star (21) to the most home runs ever (755) \u2026<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s that you say? Aaron has the <em>second<\/em> most home runs ever?<\/p>\n<p>Well, to believe that you have to accept that Barry Bonds, with 762, didn\u2019t cheat to get there. That he didn\u2019t take human growth hormones, the infamous \u201ccream\u201d and \u201cclear,\u201d which turned his Bill Bixby frame into Lou Ferrigno. Google \u201cBarry Bonds before and after\u201d and tell us that\u2019s all mom\u2019s cooking.<\/p>\n<p>Bonds denied the allegations, then later argued ignorance. He didn\u2019t know what he was taking, he testified, and thought it was all natural.<\/p>\n<p>Voters have kept Bonds out of the Baseball Hall of Fame over this scandal, but somehow he retains his home-run record. This is wrong. Aaron showed awesome skill when, unaided by pharmaceuticals, he broke Babe Ruth\u2019s seemingly unbreakable record. And Aaron showed grace and humility when he congratulated Bonds for beating his mark, though it was clear to everyone that it was tainted.<\/p>\n<p>Hank Aaron was a tremendous ambassador for baseball, and we can think of one way baseball can honor him in death. MLB, give him back his home run record.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
