With exceptional upper-body strength, Killebrew was known not just for home run frequency but also home runs of great distance, known as "tape measure homers". He hit the longest measured home runs at the ballparks in Minnesota and Baltimore, and was the first of just four batters who cleared the left field roof at Detroit. In 1964 Killebrew belted 49 home runs, the most he ever hit in one season, with this bat most likely accounting for number 45 that season. He ultimately finished his career with a total of 573 home runs sealing his induction not only into the 500 home run club but eventually the Hall Of Fame. Full PSA/DNA LOA-John Taube GU9
