At age 86, baseball Hall of Famer Henry Louis “Hank” Aaron has died.
His daughter confirmed the news to Atlanta’sWSB-TV.
He ended his career with 755 total, according to theNew York Post.
But that spotlight made Aaron realize his influence, and the change-making role he had in the Black community.
“I realized that I had some kind of role that I should be playing.
“I don’t have any qualms about it at all,” he said.
“I feel quite proud of myself for doing something like this.
It’s just a small thing that can help zillions of people in this country.”
