Class two divi sions Wagering and Freeforall Thirtynine years this week at the Sew York Polo Grounds a young man wearing the showy garb of the Boston Red Sox stepped up to the plate casually bit a homerun into the upper tier of seats and trotted around the basepaths to a polite smattering of applause The big young mail who sent the ball hurtling into the upper tier of seats for his first home- run in the major leagues was George Herman Ruth the Babe as he later became a fleet innately known to millions Babe Ruth had moved up to the major leagues from the Baltimore club of the International where his southpaw pitching had attracted attention It was the third inning of a game rimless up to that point that this young rookie step ped up to face the veteran righthander of the Yankees Jack Perhaps held the youngster in light esteem At any rate pitched a ball that was a little too good and away it streaked into far reaches of the distant stands a tremendous drive It was the first of homeruns in major league play and Babe Ruth hanged the course of baseball from the care ful play i a single run to the big inning when the slug gers suddenly gang up a weakening pitcher and hammer home- runs in droves Hut it is an even greater feat one which you find in the records which goes to the eternal credit of the brawny When the Sox scandal broke and in it became known that the Chicago American League team had conspired to throw a worlds series the sports world was stunned and baseball trembled to its foundations It was undoubtedly a crisis Baseball was at the forks of the road facing the possibility of public ostracism and dis favour Then along came Ruth His big black tut started to pound out homeruns at prodigious pace Sold to Yankees that vear he hammered out homeruns batted 376 The next year he hit and the scurrilous Sox were forgotten amid the thunder of Ruths big bat that lured millions of fans hack to the stands that carried on for another seasons and saved
