Who is the Greatest Right Handed Hitter in Major League Baseball MLB History Not Counting Babe Ruth?
Babe Ruth is widely regarded as the greatest baseball player of all time, but when we exclude him from the conversation, who is the best right-handed hitter in MLB history? There are several candidates with compelling arguments, but one name stands out: Hank Aaron.
Aaron played a remarkable 23-year career with the Milwaukee/Atlanta Braves and Milwaukee Brewers. His exceptional hitting prowess is evidenced by his numerous records and accolades. He holds the all-time records for home runs (755), runs batted in (2,297), and total bases (6,856). Aaron was also a 25-time All-Star and won three Gold Glove Awards.
Aaron's consistent performance throughout his career is equally impressive. He hit at least 20 home runs in every full season he played, and he drove in at least 90 runs in 15 seasons. His longevity and durability are a testament to his exceptional skills and dedication.
While other players may have had more power or a higher peak, Aaron's combination of longevity, consistency, and all-around hitting ability sets him apart as the greatest right-handed hitter in MLB history not counting Babe Ruth.
