Babe Ruth: 60 Home Runs In a Season
贝贝·鲁思:一个赛季60次本垒打
You don't get a nickname like "The Sultan of Swat" without being able to knock the ball out of the park. George Herman "Babe" Ruth was the first player to hit 30 home runs in a season. And the first to hit 40. And the first to hit 50. His 1927 record of 60 home runs in just 155 games represented 14% of all of the home runs hit in the American League that year
毫无疑问,棒球场上的本垒打才是所有观众瞩目的焦点。而贝贝·鲁思是美国职业棒球大联盟历史上第1位一个赛季打出30支本垒打的选手。接下来,他又接连创造了一个赛季40支、50支本垒打的记录。1927年,贝贝·鲁思更是在155场比赛中,创造了60支本垒打的成绩,个人本垒打数量甚至占大联盟本垒打总数量的14%。
