Hank Aaron's Home Run Wall

Field review by the editors.

Atlanta, Georgia

Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruth's career home run record -- which had stood for nearly 40 years -- on April 8, 1974, at Atlanta's Fulton County Stadium, when he hit his 715th home run. The stadium was torn down in 1995, but the section of outfield fence that the ball flew over was left standing. Now it's in the middle of a parking lot.
