It was the home run that shook The Bronx and beyond.
A sweltering Yankee Stadium was abuzz in the bottom of the eighth on Sept. 30, 1927, as Babe Ruth stepped up to the plate with the Bombers and Washington Senators tied 2-2.
It was 82 degrees under clear skies and The Babe was on a hot streak, having blasted 16 homers already that September to tie his major-league mark of 59 home runs in a season.
The pitch from southpaw Tom Zachary was low and inside.
With a crack, the Sultan of Swat sent the ball soaring high into the right-field seats — and into history with his record-breaking 60th home run, a mark that would stand for 34 years.
