Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves hits home run number 450, a 6th-inning solo shot in today’s contest between the Braves and Pirates. Roberto Clemente responds almost immediately with his own “number 450”. Les Biederman explains in the Pittsburgh Press: “Aaron whistled when he talked of the two shots Clemente drilled. One struck the left field wall and bounced back on the field for a double. The other traveled over Mack Jones’ head in dead center (450 feet) and he got a triple.” Both the two-out, 3rd-inning double and 6th-inning, leadoff triple are followed by RBI singles from Bill Mazeroski.
