Yankees' 1st Old Timers' Day - September 28, 1947 - Ruth, Ty Cobb, Cy Young, Jimmy Foxx (20 HOFers!)
🎥 The Historic First Yankees Old-Timers’ Day (1947) 🏟️
On September 28, 1947, Yankee Stadium hosted the first-ever Old-Timers’ Day, a star-studded tribute to baseball’s legends and a heartfelt farewell to the ailing Babe Ruth. The event featured a reunion of the iconic Murderers’ Row lineup, including Earle Combs, Bob Meusel, and Tony Lazzeri, along with non-Yankee greats like Ty Cobb, Cy Young, and Jimmie Foxx.
Babe Ruth, though too frail to play, he appeared for a roaring crowd of 25,085 in what would be his final public appearance at the stadium (though I believe he still was there for the retirement of his number). The game, filled with unforgettable moments-including Earle Combs’ inside-the-park home run-raised $45,000 for the Babe Ruth Foundation to support underprivileged youth.
This day also traced its roots to Lou Gehrig’s emotional farewell in 1939 and Babe Ruth Day earlier that year. The Yankees’ signature event became a cherished tradition, honoring the past and uniting fans with the legends who shaped baseball history.
Yankee greats there included Frank Baker, Herb Pennock, Bob Meusel, Earle Combs, Waite Hoyt, Lefty Gomez, and Red Ruffing. Philadelphia Athletics owner-manager Connie Mack managed a squad of non-Yankee former stars including Tris Speaker, Al Simmons, George Sisler, Jimmie Foxx, Mickey Cochrane, Lefty Grove, Chief Bender, Cy Young, Ed Walsh, and Ty Cobb. Twenty current or future Hall of Famers played or attended.
I could not find a boxscore or record of the final. I do believe it was only a two-inning exhibition.

Adopted daughter??? Was the BaBe Shooting Blanks???
Wow! True legends of the game that was still pure. Jackie Robinson, Larry Doby and other black ballplayers had integrated baseball earlier in 1947 and so it was fitting to honor the "elder statesmen" of the previous era, Babe Ruth chief among them.
All I can think now is “Up at the mound is ol’ curly. He’s a 47 year old alcoholic, he’s the greatest athlete alive!”
Imagine if Lou Gherig was there too....😢
It'd be sooooo much better if this were narrated by a real person and not one of the ElevenLabs AI voices.
石ころのような個性もあれば、ダイヤモンドのような個性もある!全てはやってみないと、見てみないと分からない!令和7年2月2日
Absolutely excellent
Connie Mack was not born in 1896
Thats the first time I have ever gotten a good look at Yankee stadium original.or at least that version that I've never really seen
Videos like this remind of how much I loved this game. When I was 10-years old I would put on mt full Red Sox uniform with my pants just over my kneecap so my red sanitary socks would show. I would go outside by myself and pitch 9 innings throwing pitches against a brick wall which I drew a strike zone in black crayon. My arm hardly ever felt bad or tired or dead.
Ruth not only elevated baseball, but the larger culture as well. People started buying newspapers to see if that "big SOB" hit a home run. People bought radios to listen to live baseball. Great footage of the gratest sports icon ever. Thanks for posting.
Lebron James, NBA GOAT.
LJ, anti-american marxist . . .
In the dead ball era and before they brought the fences in so the players could hit more home runs. Babe Ruth was hitting 60 home runs in a season. He did not need drugs or steroids, like those Chislers Bonds, Sosa and McGuire. If he were playing today he would hit 80 home runs in a season, and have over 1,000 life time home runs.
Babe Ruth couldn’t even play minor league ball today. So overrated.
Go away, troll.
You are right - he is dead. Greatest baseball player of all-time.
Why? What do you know that nobody else does?
This was NOT Babe Ruth's last public appearance. That was the following year celebrating Yankee Stadium's 25th anniversary. He passed away 2 months later.
Baseball is not the huge thing it was back then. The country came to a stop for the world series. People huddled around radios. Ships at sea listened to the game. Baseball still is important but not like then. In my opinion.
Going woke didn't help MLB . . .
There’s a never-ending debate on whether to colorize black-and-white photos and motion pictures. Particularly for film noire, the argument is the director used black-and-white as an element to capture mood and add suspense - the shadows. Certainly, I respect how the filmmakers plied their trade. Yet, I remember seeing, “The Wizard of Oz,” when Dorothy exited her house into Munchkinland in color for the first time: it was breathtaking! That’s what this video did for me.
What a gem. Home movie footage in living color of the legends of baseball beyond their prime, including the Babe, Cobb, Foxx, and others. Like it was yesterday. Thank you for sharing this.
I went to the Old Timer's games in 65 and 66. DiMaggio hit a home run the first year and a double in the gap the second year. The love for him by the fans was overwhelming.
I thought the first old timers day was Lou Gehrig day
3:14 is Al Simmons. Great hitter and power hitter. HOF
AI voices most horrible thing in the world!
The footage is outstanding but could you not take the time to their name pronunciation correct?!
The boys of summer
This is amazing to see this in color. It reminds you of how lively those guys were, considering that most of us only know them from black and white photos.
Assemble of Goats
Babe ruth got 60 homeruns in a season. Before he was an outfielder, he was also a pitcher.
Babe Ruth several seasons ,by himself hit more Home Runs ..then ANY ENTIRE TEAM did in both leagues ...Think about that ........Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb will always be ..the 1.2 All Time Greats ....all time greatest outfielders only question is who is the third one ?..
Born in 1960..... My father was a baseball fan and I heard many stories about these gentlemen. This video touched my heart... And may God bless these heroes.
Saw Ernie Banks hit 500th HR at Wrigley
Nice. Except you had to sit through a Cubs game.
Yeah too bad the anti Yankee Steinbrenner tore down the house that Ruth built on top of screwing Billy Martin Yogi Berra and all the other old Yankees
Ruth hitting 500ft homers without steroids, weight training and the ball was softer dead ball era unbelievable .
Oh c'mon. . .Hey, "Break Brothers". . .WHY don't you jerks hire a REAL person to do the narration? You ruined an otherwise great video. . .I almost "subscribed", but NO WAY. You don't deserve a subscription. . .What you deserve is a Bob Gibson fastball right under your chin!!
Amazing footage. We know most of these players only through their baseball statistics.
Hard to believe they saw those uniforms as classic. lol
I'm assuming there's no footage of the game itself?
It is my utmost wish that MLB retire both #3 and #4 from Baseball. It is a mortal sin they have not!!!
On Aug. 16, 1948, just two months after he appeared at Yankee Stadium to have his No. 3 retired by the Yankees, Ruth passed away at the age of 53.
Of all the greats, Babe was the best!
If you're going to narrate such videos, you really should learn how to correctly pronounce players' names.
Ole Ty Cobb finally got a number - 25. As a 65 year old die-hard Tiger fan, I never knew that. TH-cam is wondrous.
Great Video. Thanks for sharing.
I went to an old timers game in 2007 in Clearwater. Bob Feller even lobbed 15 to 20 pictures over the plate at age 88. Fergie jenkins, Gaylord Perry, Wade boggs, and several other big names were also there. It's amazing to consider how good of an athlete's some of these people were to still be able to do that.
Oh my word--this was so cool! To see live video of the greatest greats of the game all assembled in one day!! Cy young, Ty Cobb, Joe McCarthy, Connie Mack, George sisler, IN uniform!!!! How cool is that? We have all seen the images used in/on cards but here they are walking out onto the field!!!!🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯This is a great video!!! The Babe!!! Wow!
What a shame that Lou Gherig couldn't be there. One of the greatest of all time.
He was dead, hard to attend when you're dead. Lots of other greats were dead as well, this was for Babe Ruth, all those great players and you say it's a shame, what a joke...
@rogeeeferrari yes, I know that. He was a great player who met a tragic end. That's why he was inducted to the HOF immediately after he retired, forgoing the 5 year wait.
Pretty exciting event on MLB History! All these great iconic players mixing it up together and for charity! Great Players and Great Caring People.!! ❤️🙏🏽
Great footage, but so annoying to hear Ai mispronouncing names,
R. I. P. BABE #3⚾ RUTH YANKEE STADIUM CY⚾YOUNG TY⚾COBB JIMMIE ⚾FOXX HOME RUN BAKER and all the rest that have passed away.
In 1975. I was at Mets old timers game. & I was fortunate enough to see Willie Mays & Joe DiMaggio walking together from the dugout from centerfield,as they were being introduced.
This is really an amazing video. Thanks for posting it. I’m surprised this wasn’t posted on TH-cam, by anyone else before, in the past almost 20 years
