I need stats or records broken by Roger Marris NY Yankees?
Question:All the Yankee Fans in Albuquerque keep talking about Roger Marris. Was his Home Run Total a record Breaker ?
Answers:
Do YOU think the Yankees made the right decision in getting rid of Shefield?
Roger Maris broke Babe Ruth's single season home run record of 60 which he hit in 1927. Maris broke the record in 1961 by hitting 61 home runs.To the true baseball fan Maris still holds the record. Those who came after him, like Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa, and Barry Bonds, who hit more, did it illegally. They used steroids which is cheating.
Maris was an excellent ball player. He has never gotten the credit he deserved. He had one of the greatest arms in the game.
Who will have better numbers at the end of the year: Pujols or A Rod?
he hit 61hr in a season, which stood until Mark Mcguire topped that in 1998Can someone please define the "hold" stat in baseball?
Maris is my favorite player of all time.Who is the best MLB pitcher to come along since 1970?
Maris hit 61 home runs in 1961, which still stands as the American League record. Since the AL added two expansion teams that year, the season schedule was expanded from 154 to 162 games, giving Maris additional opportunities to go long, which he exploited.Maris had three very good seasons and took home two AL Most Valuable Player Awards for his efforts. That and some All-Star selections are the right amount of honoraria for his career. He is not Hall measure, which the writers have understood.
