In the summer of 1961, two baseball legends, Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris, were neck and neck in a race to break Babe Ruth's record of 60 home runs in a single season. The stakes were high, the pressure was immense, and the spotlight was fierce. As the two men hit home run after home run, the nation was captivated by their quest for greatness. But as the season came to a close, it became clear that only one man would emerge victorious. Who would it be? 61* tells the story of an unforgettable chapter in sports history.
