Presented in this lot is a ticket stub from the Milwaukee Braves 7-6 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on April 15th, 1954 at County Stadium. This was Hank Aaron’s second career game (of 3,298), and he recorded the first two hits and the first run of his career in the April 15th contest. The future Hall of Famer went 2-5, doubling off Vic Raschi in the first inning and singling against Stu Miller in the third. Aaron scored in the third following singles from Johnny Logan and Sam Calderone. The Braves won this game in 11 innings thanks to a walk-off single from Johnny O’Connell with one out in the bottom of the 11th. Warren Spahn earned his first win of the season after pitching all 11 innings for Milwaukee. This offered ticket stub has been encapsulated and authenticated by PSA (21567451).
