Aaron doubts 715 record this season says Aaron
MILWAUKEE AP Henry Aaron told Milwaukee Sentinel sports writer Lou Chapman he doubts he will break Babe Ruth s career home run mark in 1973. At 39 he cited needing too many games and not helping the team unless hot in the second half. He has 19 homers and trails Ruth s 714 by 22. He recalled 398 of his 692 came with Milwaukee and said next year may be his last as a player with a wish to stay in baseball in a front office role.
