When Roger Maris beat Babe Ruth’s record of 60 home runs, people made an issue over the fact that he had not done so in 154 games (the length of the season when Ruth was playing). Judge has a chance to beat Ruth’s record in 154 games.
I remember that well. Excellent point. Very exciting back in 1961 with the competition between Mantle and Maris ... and I was an ORIOLES kid!
