THE 100th ANNIVERSARY OF BABE RUTH’S HISTORIC RETURN TO BALTIMORE

                                                                  THURSDAY AND FRIDAY, APRIL 18 and 19, 2019

“We have no knowledge of any hitter ever matching Ruth’s deeds in that 1919 visit to Baltimore. It is highly improbable that we ever will. At least one of Babe’s drives exceeded 500 feet in length, possibly as many as three. When it is understood that only one such home run has been hit by the combined rosters of every Major League team so far in the 21st Century, that distance level is nearly superhuman.”
