Mickey Mantle sets a major league record when hits a home run from both sides of the plate for the 10th time in his career.

1964 – Mickey Mantle sets a major league record when hits a home run from both sides of the plate for the 10th time in his career. Mantle hits a left-handed homer off Ray Herbert over the 461-foot marker in centerfield that lands 15 rows into the bleachers, 502 feet from the plate.

At Yankee Stadium, Mickey Mantle blasts his 30th home run of the season, a fourth inning solo shot off White Sox’s 20-game winner Ray Herbert, to extend his streak of having 30 or more round-trippers to eight seasons. The ‘Mick’, who missed a month of the campaign because of a leg injury, batted leadoff in the final series of the year to collect more at-bats.
