Hank aarons biography
Aaron was known as "Hammerin' Hank" and "Bad Henry" during his playing career for his hitting prowess.
Henry Louis Aaron was born February 5, 1934, in Mobile, one of Herbert and Estella Aaron's eight children. Hank's brother Tommie would also play for the Atlanta Braves.
The Aarons grew up in a low-income section of Mobile known as "Down the Bay." Aaron batted cross-handed (meaning that he hit right-handed but placed his left hand higher on the bat) and was a standout football player at Mobile's Central High, where he was a classmate of future baseball hall-of-famer Willie McCovey.
