回憶漢克·阿倫打破全壘打歷史紀錄的那一天
On April 8, 1974, at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium, Hank Aaron achieved a legendary milestone in American sports history.
1974年4月8日，在亞特蘭大富爾頓縣體育場，漢克·阿倫（ㄏㄢˋㄎㄜˋㄚㄌㄨㄣˊ）在美國體育史上寫下了傳奇性的里程碑。
Facing pitcher Al Downing, Aaron connected with a 1-0 pitch, launching his 715th career home run over the left-center field fence.
面對投手阿爾·唐寧（ㄚㄦˇㄊㄤˊㄋㄧㄥˊ），阿倫擊中了第1球，將他職業生涯第715支全壘打轟出左中外野圍牆。
This swing officially surpassed the long-standing record of 714 home runs held by Babe Ruth since 1935.
這一擊正式超越了貝比·魯斯（ㄅㄟˋㄅㄧˇㄌㄨˇㄙ）自1935年以來保持的714支全壘打的長期紀錄。
Throughout his pursuit of the record, Aaron faced relentless, violent racism and received numerous death threats, forcing him to live under constant security.
在追逐紀錄的過程中，阿倫面臨了無情的暴力種族歧視，並收到了無數死亡威脅，迫使他在持續的安保下生活。
His achievement was not just a baseball record; it was a powerful symbol during the Civil Rights era, representing perseverance in the face of bigotry.
他的成就不僅僅是一項棒球紀錄；在民權運動時期，這是一個強有力的象徵，代表了面對偏見（ㄆㄧㄢㄐㄧㄢˋ）時的毅力。
Aaron later expressed that he felt a duty to succeed not only for his family but also for Jackie Robinson.
阿倫後來表示，他感到有一種責任要成功，不僅是為了他的家人，也是為了傑基·羅賓森（ㄐㄧㄝˊㄐㄧˊㄌㄨㄛˊㄅㄧㄣㄊㄙㄣˊ）。
Hank Aaron’s legacy remains one of strength, grace, and an unwavering commitment to excellence, proving that true champions can triumph over even the darkest adversity.
漢克·阿倫的遺產依然是力量、優雅以及對卓越不懈追求的證明，這證明了真正的冠軍能夠克服即便最黑暗的逆境。
