Major League Baseball’s all-time home run leader here Tuesday,

homer.
The 43-year-old San Francisco
Giants slugger clubbed a 3-2 fastball by Washington Nationals
left-handed pitcher Mike Bacsik into the right field seats with one
out and nobody on in the fifth inning to break the record Aaron had
held for more than 30 years.
