One of MLBs most endearing starts on the past 60 years died this morning in his sleep at the age of 86, as first confirmed by the Atlanta Braves. 

Henry Aaron's career in MLB spanned 24 years, in which he amassed 755 home runs and more than 2,000 RBIs. 

He was also the first hitter in MLB to hit 500 home runs and secure 3,000 hits.
