Reggie Jackson braces Ruth and Maris with a safe pace
Reggie Jackson insists he will not chase the 60 home runs this season despite belting his 38th in Oakland’s 5 0 victory over Seattle. He notes his pace this 162 game season sits ahead of Maris and Ruth, but says he is not yet in their class. Other AL results include Minnesota over Chicago White Sox 4 2 and Detroit over Boston 7 0. Jackson says he has hit multiple homers in a game eight times this season, a pace he downplays as he nears age 23.
