Today, we mourn the passing of an icon. Sometimes, there are players who were simply “bigger than baseball”. That applies to Atlanta Braves legend, Henry Aaron. He passed away on Friday which is news that naturally sends shockwaves across the baseball community. The Chicago White Sox, amongst the rest of the teams in the league, are paying their respects to a legend of the game and of the human race.
