1961 Regular Season
Maris hits 61
Yankees vs Boston
1 - 0
1 October, 1961
Though Roger Maris is now lauded as one of New York's greats, many forget that he was not the favorite to pass Babe Ruth's single-season HR mark. Most of the world wanted to see Mickey Mantle take over the title. In fact, Maris' teammates said the season of 61 was so stressful for Maris that his hair was literally falling out. It came down to the final 3 games of the season for Maris to set a new record and he did it against Chicago on October 1, 1961. At his second at bat he took two balls, waiting for his pitch, and then took a fastball deep to right, 360 feet for the record. (History note: Back when Ruth set the record with 60, he was playing in a 154 game season. Maris was playing in a 162 game schedule.)

Delayed, not truthful about it

This item was purchased in early December with an estimated deliver day of December 16-17. It didn’t arrive by Christmas. When I asked about status, they said they’re at the mercy of FedEx but the status website indicated it hasn’t even shipped. I followed up to clarify and never heard back. I have purchased 3 items from this seller and I would not again. I understand being behind due to the holidays, they should have just said that instead of blaming FedEx. It’s a red flag

What we said is the truth. Your item was delayed by our shipping providers and this was common throughout many businesses throughout the holidays. I certainly hope you come back and buy from us again - we are typically speedy shippers and get things out asap but we cannot control when our shipping providers have issues in their warehouse.
