On Tuesday, July 20, 1976, Hank Aaron hit his 755^th and final home run for the Milwaukee Brewers in a 6-2 win over the California Angels.  It was mid-season, so most likely none of the 10,134 in attendance at Milwaukee County Stadium had any idea it was the last time Hammerin’ Hank would hit one out of the park.  You can see video of Hank Aaron’s final home run here.

A portion of the blog post here previously may be published as content in my Milwaukee Brewers historical book. For this reason the post has been taken down. This page remains in place so links posted to here on various social media sites remain active.

My book Building the Brewers: Bud Selig and the Return of Major League Baseball to Milwaukee is available to be ordered on the McFarland website.
