Baseball is a sport of records. In same words, baseball is all about records. If your records are good then you are a good baseball player, in the same way if your records are bad, then you’re not a good player. There are lots of players in the past who’s records are still kept such as Babe Ruth, Perry Walter Johnson, El Morl….. Babe Ruth, who is he? He’s the GOD of baseball, the KING of swings. There are lots of famous quotes that Babe Ruth said or quotes about him such as: * Every strike-out brings me closer to a homerun. * It’s hard to beat someone who never gives up * “The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime.” * “Some 20 years ago, I stopped talking about the Babe for the simple reason that I realized that those who had never seen him didn't believe me.” - Tommy Holmes (sportswriter) * “He wasn't a baseball player. He was a worldwide celebrity, an international star, the likes of which baseball has never seen since.” - Ernie Harwell (broadcaster) * “To understand him you had to understand this: he wasn't human.” - Joe Dugan (teammate) Almost all of the quotes are saying Babe Ruth isn’t human. Indeed he’s not human when we talk about baseball. He’s records are incredible. They cannot be broken by any other human being and for 30 years he has stood number 1 in the hall of fame. Now here are his records. * Batting average: .342
Home runs: 714
Hits: 2,873
RBI: 2,213
Pitching W/L record: 94-46
ERA: 2.28
These records are still 1st in the world’s baseball league. Remember that baseball is a game of records and Babe Ruth’s records are still standing 1st which means he is still the best player who ever existed in the history of baseball and this is a small part of his last interview: Babe Ruth: “ ladies and gentlemen, do
