Jackson Refuses 60 Homer Pace Says 26 Is Enough
Reggie Jackson downplays chasing Babe Ruth and Roger Maris, noting 26 homers with 27 would satisfy him. He helps Oakland A’s win 16-4 and 9-2 over Kansas City with a two run shot, a solo homer, and a key diving catch to aid rookie Chuck Dobson. Jackson also suffers a hit to the hand but remains confident. The A’s move to first in the AL West with a 33-26 mark, led by Jackson’s pair of blasts.
