Hank Aaron

Hank Aaron's 715 home run ball was caught by his teammate Tom House just over the outfield fence. He returned the ball to Aaron and it is now on display in the Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame in Turner Field along with the bat used to hit the ball.

Babe Ruth died in 1948, long before Aaron played organized baseball.

It's hard to say whether they would have been friends had they played at the same time, although Ruth's wild ways would probably have not endeared him to Hank's more serious approach to the game.

I can guarantee you Hank had two biological parents, one female and one male. I will assume you mean did he grow up with both his parents living in at home with him. I would think so. He had seven siblings. However, click the related links section below for all the information on his early years.

Hank Aaron was born Henry Louis Aaron.

A Babe Ruth signature is one of the most prized signatures in the hobby. A Babe Ruth single signed baseball in general is worth about $6,000.-$10,000. Value may vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature. If the signature is not properly authenticated it could sell at half the market value or less. The signature should be bold, strong, and stand out in contrast to the photo. A weak, and faded signature will sell for less. Most autographs in Ruth's day was signed with a fountain pen. A signature with the quotation marks around "Babe" typifies his pre-1928 autograph and will sell at a higher value. A Hank Aaron single signed baseball is valued at about $250. Adding Hank Aaron's signature could devalue the ball and sell for less. Multi signed baseballs often do. If it sells for more it would be because it was bought by a collector that desires the two signatures, but won't sell for much higher than the value of a Babe Ruth signed baseball. Ex-New York Yankee David Wells had Barry Bonds sign a Babe Ruth single signed baseball. This sent chills up the spines of hard core collectors noting that the ball will be devalued.

Hank Aaron became the all-time leader in runs batted in (RBIs) on April 8, 1974, when he hit his 715th career home run, surpassing Babe Ruth's previous record.
