Roger Maris played 12 seasons of Major League Baseball from 1957-1968 with 4 different teams, most notably the New York Yankees. Maris is most remembered for his historic 1961 season where he broke Babe Ruth's single season home run record with 61 home runs, which came in the fourth inning of the last game of the season on October 1, 1961. Maris also led the New York Yankees to a World Series Championship that same year. Although Major League Baseball has seen Maris’ record exceeded by 3 players (McGwire, Sosa and Bonds) in a narrow span of 4 seasons (1998-2001) attributed to the controversial use of performance enhancing drugs (ie steroids, human growth hormone), Maris’ historic 61 home runs is still considered the record today.
Maris is a 7-time All-Star, 3-time World Series Champion in 1961, 1962, and 1967, 2-time AL MVP in 1960 and 1961, and winner of a 1960 Gold Glove Award. Maris' number '9' was officially retired by the New York Yankees in 1984 shortly before his passing the following year.
