This original wire photo shows Roger Maris batting during his rookie season with the Cleveland Indians. However it was with the NY Yankees that Maris will always be remembered. This 6" x 9" Cleveland Press photo is in EX-NRMT condition with some minor corner creases. Maris broke Babe Ruth's single season home run record of 60 by hitting his 61st homer in 1961 at Yankee Stadium versus Tracy Stallard and the Boston Red Sox. It was the final game of the year and the call was famously made on television by Phil Rizzuto.
