Hank Aaron is widely regarded as the greatest position player in CKL history. He was a superb five tool player who was an integral part of nine playoff teams during his career including three league champions. Aaron hit for power and average, collecting over 200 hits six times, surpassing the 50 home run mark three times, exceeding 100 RBI eleven times and scoring over 100 runs eleven times. At the time of his retirement he was the all time CKL leader in homeruns (522), runs (1594), runs batted in (1812), extra base hits (1062), and total bases (4769). He was third in hits (2602) and fourth in doubles (479). He displayed speed with 158 stolen bases and was an excellent outfielder as well, starting 1441 games in right field with a career fielding average of .985 at that position and during his career he appeared at every position except shortstop. Led league in Rbi three times, home runs and extra base hits twice each and slugging once. CKL MVP in 1962.
