Did Hammerin' Hank Have A Hammerin' Estate?
Baseball Hall of Famer, Hank Aaron passed away on January 22, 2021, at the age of 86. It has been revealed that the longtime Altana Braves right fielder passed away due to natural causes, even though many believed it was a result of his first COVID-19 vaccine shot. However, the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed he passed due to natural causes and the vaccine had no impact.
Anyone that knows me, knows that we are a baseball family. Mikey has been a ballplayer since he was old enough to walk, and he’s been a catcher since around age 8. Since then, he’s been all baseball, all the time. Being from Boston inom have always been a Red Sox fan and I’ve been to plenty of games at Fenway park, but it wasn’t until Mikey started playing that I really fell in love with the game. I enjoy it more now because my favorite player lives in my house.
With Mikey’s love

The nation recently mourned the loss of Major League Baseball great Hank Aaron. Regarded as on of the greatest baseball players of all time, Aaron hit 755 home runs in his 23 year career, breaking the long-standing MLB record that was held by Babe Ruth. In 1953, at the beginning of his Major League career, a 19-year-old Aaron was promoted to the Jacksonville Braves, the Class-A affiliate of the Milwaukee Braves. Along with
Felix Mantilla, Horace Garner, and two Black ball players in Savannah, Aaron was one of five that would break baseball’s color barrier in the racially notorious South Atlantic League. Often separated from his team because of Jim Crow laws in Jacksonville, Aaron and his Black teammates spent a considerable amount of their time in 1953 in Durkeeville.
