    if you've ever been poor or doubted by others then you have a reason to look up to the Bambino, i think that's where so much of the pull he had comes from, at least for me. an ace of a man who rose above everything thrown his way to make history on his own terms, changing baseball as a game while he did it. that's the American grit and spirit that I know, and he had it in spades. he wasn't a perfect man, but neither is New York a perfect city. perfection doesn't leave nearly as much of an impression.

    In Ruth's day pitchers threw 60-70mph max. Most insanely difficult pitches like splitter, 90mph slider, etc didn't exist back then. It's just not the same game. Randy Johnson for instance, heck even Edwin Jackson or Victor Zambrano for instance would embarass Ruth if he stepped into a batters box today. If anybodys numbers deserve asterisks, his do

      Agree, not the same game. 60-70 seems a bit of an exaggeration but I get your point. Give moderns players a 54 oz bat against 70 mph and see how they do? And Jeckinson's research is based more on home run distance (feet traveled) and not stats and numbers (subjective). Ruth played at the peak of America's newspaper culture. NY media included as many as 18 newspapers. When it came to the objective accounts of actual game events, .......there was a clear pattern of consistency. Whether you think Ruth could play now is irrelevant, what is incredible is his batting power is unmatched by any hitter of any era.
