World Almanac Blog 02/01/08

In 2008 I will blog on items found in the World Almanac. This is a yearly Christmas gift I have grown to cherish. M thru F you will read items that maybe chronological, topical or random.

Baseball's list of Hall of Famers (p.901)begins with Hank Aaron and ends with Robin Yount. Aaaron played his final 2 seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers hitting 22 HR's in 1975 and 1976. Yount was a young Brewer those seasons hitting 10 HR's. In Aaron's final game on 10.3.76 Yount led off and was hitless while Aaron drove in a run with one hit.
