Mule Suttles Sets Negro Leagues Single-Season Home Run Record

Newark Eagles first baseman George 'Mule' Suttles was renowned as the most prodigious power hitter in the Negro Leagues, with reported single-season home run totals that would dwarf major league records. His performance in the 1935 East-West All-Star Game — a walk-off home run — became one of the most celebrated moments in Negro Leagues history.
