I'm convinced he would not thrive in the MLB today probably wouldn't even make a roster. He faced 7 teams over 154 games against only white pitchers who only threw a fastball that was probably around 80mph

It should be remembered that the Red Sox didn't just sell Babe to the Yankees; they traded them half their starting lineup from that last WS team. That's what really drove the team into a hole.

Ruth didn't call the shot. No contemporary reports in the papers. Pitcher Charlie Root denied Ruth did it, saying he would have beaned Ruth if he had. Even Ruth never actually claimed it. He didn't mention it after the game and was cagey about it ever since. The more likely explanation is that, being ridden by the Cubs' bench and having two strikes on him, he was signaling to their dugout that he had one more strike coming. No one told Ruth he had cancer, but he knew. Without doubt, the greatest player of all time. It's not even close.

He along with the Charleston dance and Charles Lindberg are the very definition of the roaring 20's. No other person in sports definaed an entire decade. I consider him then it's Mickey Mantle followed by Wilt Chamberlin and then Tom Brady. But the Bade is in a league all his own

<<@languagelearningwithap
says :
Thank you. This was done in a really classy way. I love Babe Ruth. I learned a lot from this short video on him. The final lines of the video were awesome and so true. He was just a fan and a ball player. Well said, and something that multiple documentaries and sportscasters have missed about the guy. Really, sports stars are just people that are playing boys games. It is the escapism, and the entertainment of the game that he helped bring to the game. Awesome channel! Keep up the great work!

Did you say Baltimore Oracles? That woud be an interesting team name, but better for one in, say, Delphi Indiana. The team in Baltimore at the time was - and still is - called the Baltimore Orioles, as in the name of an actual type of bird native to eastern North America.
