  • Babe Ruth: Milestone Home Runs
    General Admission Home Run Milestones for Babe Ruth by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research The home run prowess of George Herman “Babe” Ruth is legendary. So are many of the home runs that he hit – towering shots that cleared the outfield fences in ballparks across the league. And the frequency with which he produced home runs is astounding: one every 11.76 at-bats, or roughly one home rune every 3.5 games. How many times did newspapers across the country feature a headline like this? Many consider Ruth the greatest player of all-time. He is certainly the greatest home run hitter the game has ever seen, the accomplishments of others like Hank Aaron and Willie Mays not withstanding. Debates will rage among fans and historians. Arguments involving SABRmetrics and other analytical methods will attempt to settle the matter in favor of one position or another. The simple truth is that Babe Ruth hit home runs more frequently during his career than any other baseball player, and in so doing he changed the way the game of baseball was played. As the game teetered on the edge of collapse because of the Black Sox scandal after the 1919 World Series, it was the home run heroics of Babe Ruth that kept the fans coming to the ball park. He drew crowds wherever he played. He made the game fun again. The following are brief excerpts about several of the home run milestones in the 22-year career of Babe Ruth. S. Derby Gisclair 1 404 Notre Dame Street – PH1 New Orleans LA 70130 General Admission May 6, 1915 Babe Ruth hits his first major league home run at the Polo Grounds in New York in the third inning, batting ninth in the order for the Boston Red Sox.
