Babe Ruth. Even compared with today's sluggers. Still the best. Even w/o today's nutrition & training. Still the best. Even with his drinking. Imagine both Ruth & Gehrig today. Just frightening. HOF Standard.🇺🇸
@Angry Grizzly Lol ya right. Babe Ruth would shit himself on a Degrom fastball/slider combo. Literally expel feces without hesitation. You can't even compare today to the 20's.
Seriously, WTF? You honestly think a fat dude on hot dogs and beer would hang well with today's top major leaguers? NO....way. Would he good? Sure. Would he hit 714 hr's? No way. Players today are leaps and bounds better overall than even 30 years ago. They train better, they have better information, video, etc. They are bigger, stronger, faster, etc. But if he lived the same lifestyle as he did back then, he'd be out of the league by the time he's 30. Take Ruth from the 20's as is, and he's an above average to good player, but that's it.
@Alien Observer So you honestly think Babe Ruth today - with his party lifestyle - would be the same player he was in his prime? As I said, he would be good, but not AS good. Pitching is MUCH better today than it was back then. Maybe one or two guys approach 100mph back then. Now every team is loaded with guys who approach 100. And Ruth never faced nasty relievers back then, they didn't do what they do today - six innings from the starter, then three blazing arms in a row for one inning each. Give me your argument to the contrary.
Are my eyes deceiving me? Is Babe Ruth admiring his home runs?? All the "get off my lawn" people told me only modern players admired their home runs..Oh well ! Myth debunked
No talent, in any sport, save Wayne Gretzky in hockey, was so utterly disproportionate to the rest. One example of this occurred in 1920, when Ruth hit 54 home runs and the runner-up hit 19. No misprint. The following year clubbed 59, and again the second-place finisher was 35 behind him with 24. Then we can talk about his 94-46 record as a pitcher. There is not now, never was, and never will be another baseball player to rival Babe Ruth.
The greatest player of all time; nobody but he and Ted Williams ever combined power and average to such a degree. And Babe WAS a top pitcher for the Red Sox before his hitting compelled management to move him to the outfield so he could play every day. He also saved baseball after the Black Sox scandal, while Bonds did his part to nearly destroy baseball with the steroid scandal.
Would have to agree 100%. I believe Ted Williams was a better hitter for the most part. He had hitting down to a science with his pitc chart on hit probabilities. He also put his career on hold to fight in WWII as a Marine Corps pilot, then came back and resumed his career. Both men are legendary
maybe not for long... ohtani's pitching is actaully a lot better than the Babe's ever was, and even he had to quit pitching and hitting as he said it was "too hard" and Ohtani hits like crazy while pitching like crazy, but he was the best player in the era for sure and also, this is not an opinion of mine its just based on stats
@@jimmyolsen5897 he wasnt godly at pitching, it was just cool to everyone that he could smash baseballs and also pitch pretty good. he quit pitching almist entirly when he moved form the red sox to the yanks due to it being too hard
Babe Ruth played 16 games against the Negro Leagues best, who were playing against him as if their lives depended on it. Ruth had 55 at bats, and hit 12 home runs and batted 455! He has a 1,250 Slugging percengtage! He even hit three home runs in one game, and for his forth at bat, he turned around and batted right handed as a joke.
That's the first time I've seen that.....Pretty cool. I have a Ruth signed ball that my father gave me. Love it. Sometimes I hold the case and think about how one day, many years ago, the greatest held this ball.
The Babe WAS baseball.....what he called : " the ONLY game ".... He survived the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. They painted the back of his throat with silver nitrate as he began to get sick...exactly thirty years later, he lay dying of throat cancer after being the first person to volunteer for and receive the experimental treatment of " chemotherapy ". Even on the way out, he set a record !
@@cast390 not actually the case most guys could go 85-90 even then, a bigger difference would have been how long pitchers stayed in the game and having higher pitch counts than we normally see today
It's so poetic that the greatest player of all time had a sloppy appearance. Nowadays we are overly concerned with image and the appearance of good mechanics. Yet there was the Babe, with his slightly goofy presence, rivalling all other players in his day and even in modern times. He knew how to hit a ball, plain and simple. Look at the results.
Yet, in a real way, that swing of his was very graceful. Natural, flowing, and instinctive. The mechanics are perfect. Kinda like Koufax's motion on the mound.
@@nicholasschroeder3678 although Ruth could actually take quite a spill if he didn't make contact with that swing. He generated so much power and momentum that the occasional (rare) swing and miss could send him on his butt.
I remember years ago talking to a friend and fellow baseball fan about how poorly edited these old baseball films are. This is a great example. Not only does Ruth change uniforms between pitches but location as well as he moves from what appears to be Florida to Yankee Stadium. Add in the standard stock fan reaction footage and the illusion is complete. Then again, perhaps the Babe could teleport between pitches.
Folks always forget that Ruth was the best LHP in the AL who set a WS record for consecutive scoreless innings that was not broken until Whitey Ford in the 60's. ( he also started ang got tossed from a perfect game! Look it up! )...Oh and BTW, I heard he swung a pretty mean stick as well....Greatest athlete in a single sport ever ( of course the greatest athlete period was Jim Thorpe ). I mean he pitched and played OF at the same time and dominated both positions..and I hate the Yankees!
In "Babe", Robert W. Creamer's superb biography about Ruth, there's a story about The Babe showing his trophy case to a couple he had invited over. Ruth pointed to one particular trophy which he said he was proudest of. He won the trophy in a farting contest. He told the woman : "Lady, you have no idea of much beer and limburger cheese I had to down to win that". When the couple left the Babe's house apparently the woman turned to her husband and said to him : "What a fascinating man" referring to Ruth.
The first two are Grapefruit League footage - palm trees in the background on one of them.The last swing isn't even the 60th homer swing. There's no footage of it in existence.
Do we know that this footage was actually the footage of HR #60 and not some other random home run he hit? I know footage was sparse then and it would be very possible that historians decided this is the closest representation we have to the 60th HR so let's use this in its place.
He hit 714 homers with 3000 less times at bat!!!!!! think about that 3000 times less at the plate!!! With 3000 more times at the plate 817 would be more like it!!!or even 914
They did help him hit it further. Before the 73 homer season, I don't thing he ever hit more than 42 or 43 homers. If he never used steroids, he hits 600+ homeruns, and gets in the Hall. His problem was, he was jealous of all the attention McGuire-Sosa recieved in 1998, and wanted a piece of that. He gets 7 MVPs. Clemens gets 8 Cy Youngs. It doesn't matter though, because they will be inducted sooner or later. I don't believe they should be, but they will be.
Video started out with Ruth in different clothes from another time period. Then it changed into him being much heavier in a white uniform. Ruth had the most powerful swing ever in the game. Just look at his raw power in this video. And he hit the longest balls ever in history.
Greatest player ever hands down. If he was a batter from the start he would have had 1,000 HRs! Aaron needed 4,000 more at bats to brake his record! And forget about steroid Bonds. To have number 42 retired in all of baseball and not number 3 is a total disgrace!
"To have number 42 retired in all of baseball and not number 3 is a total disgrace!" what a ridiculous thing to say, and probably telling of a more nefarious ideology. what jackie robinson did was bigger than baseball or setting a record.
People go on and on about Mantle and Mays and they were great players no doubt. Mantle said Mays took care of himself and that made all the difference, well, what if the Babe had taken care of himself ? What if he had the advantage of nutrition and advanced studies? There’s no telling what he could have done.
He wasn’t that overweight he was only 215 to 225 pounds thats not that big.. he wasn’t fat but maybe if he didn’t drink and smoke so much he would have played more
Probably not considering the fact that the right field foul pole in the old Yankee Stadium when the Babe played there was 295 ft and 350 ft to right center field while its 314 ft to the right field foul pole and 385 ft to right center field in the new Yankee Stadium.
Watch that second pitch and its speed. Many say back then they did not throw the baseball with the speed of modern baseball. They did have a lot of knuckle ball pitchers and spitball pitchers who threw the ball slower.
Babe Ruth could never hit in modern times. Pitchers in those days were throwing 50 MPH fastballs and had no other pitches than a softball underhand lob. And the fences were only 175 feet. Everybody chewed tobacco instead of modern Trident gum so they had bad breath and teeth. And they drank old fashioned water instead of modern Gatorade. Nutrition was terrible they ate nothing but meat and potatoes and vegetables instead of modern Hoffman's peanut butter nutrition bars and protein shakes made from isolated milk casein powder. It was a different game back then, Ruth would be on the bench today.
Dude, you clearly didn't understand what I was saying. I was agreeing with you. Babe Ruth clearly gets made fun of for his gut in his later years. My point was that it doesn't matter what he looked like. He was the greatest of all time.
Clearly, you are very intelligent, well-informed and knowledgeable about the NA. What a guy. Wilt sucked, you're right! Russell was wrong, West was wrong, everybody was wrong... except you... Uh, have you seen a doctor lately?
@@brnape707 I doubt it. Players hitting 30 homers today using the super bouncy astro ball they play with today wouldn't be hitting hardly any in his day. The dead ball Ruth played with hardly even bounced when it hit the ground.
Bobo Clown no, they were dumber then. If you have an option between getting hit in the head with a 90mph fastball or having it hit the helmet, it’s not a matter of being “tough”, it’s being smart.

True about Ruth,but Gretsky is not close to the greatness of the Babe.
