Hank is one of those names, even if you are not a fan of the sport, that has such an impact non fans remember. I never got into baseball, but that was a name, and a decent human being, whom had an impact, not just on the sport, but on humanity.
To me, Hank had an impact on baseball, like Art Monk and Doug Williams and Warren Moon had on the NFL. Most currently Patrick Mahomes, certainly to become a future Hall of Famer.
The sad thing, is that although he set a path, and proved everyone wrong, and broke Babe Ruth's record, we are still dealing with an orange dick's wake of hate and fear.
