As Major League Baseball paused to reflect this week on the enduring legacy of Henry Aaron upon the 50th anniversary of his record-breaking 715th career home run Monday, shadows of that legacy were as evident as those cast by the scoreboard at Henry Aaron Field in Glendale.
"There’s no better sportsman or representative of what it means to be a baseball player than Henry Aaron. We’re all trying to live up to his example," Milwaukee King head coach Tom Wozniak said after his team's game against Arrowhead on Tuesday.
Henry Aaron Field is the home ballpark for the Generals once again this season, which carries a special weight to the King graduate and now coach and teacher Wozniak.
