Maris broke Babe Ruth's record of 60 homeruns in 1961.
Sammy Sosa and McGwire chased the record in 1998 and finaly that season McGwire broke Maris' current record of 61 and made the new record 70 homeruns. Also, in 1998 Sammy Sosa broke Maris' record to make it 66 homeruns. Later, in 2001 Barry Bonds broke McGwire'srecord and made the modern day record a total of 73 homeruns. Bonds went on to brake Hank Aarons record for most homeruns in a career. Aarons record was 755 and Bondsmade it 756.
BUT Sosa, McGwire and Bonds all have strong evidence against them that they have taken steroids. So I believe their records should not count!
