I grew up in the NYC area and my Dad was a lifelong Yankee fan. We went to many games during Maris' heyday with the Yankees. I saw him hit several of his '61 homers in person but neither his 60th or 61st. My Dad took me to the Saturday game the day before Maris hit his 61st which was unusual because once school started the day after Labor Day we rarely went to games.
My friends and I watched him hit his recordbreaker on WPIX the next day and that's something I remember very well.
Anyway, here is the box score from the game in your scorecard, the 25th of April 1956. Interestingly, they have the home team on the left-hand side which feels odd given the conventional right side I've been used to for so long. SABR gives me access to the Paper of record, it's a great perk and diving into old Sporting News issues can be a really fun time killer!
