Oh hit nine home runs out of 20 fair balls. Aaron, batting last, passed up his last two chances as soon as he had won the contest.

The match preceded a game between the touring New York Mets and a Japanese All-Star professional baseball team. The Mets had lost three and tied two in the series going into Saturday's game.

Aaron sent the winning blast more than 300 feet along the left-field foul line.
