The Babe Ruth Birthplace Museum

In Babe Ruth's final season in the MLB
playing for the Braves, he did not light up the stat
sheet. However, in one of his last game, a glimpse of
the legend that had changed the face of baseball
forever shone through one last time. Babe hit 3 home
runs in a game against the Pirates, the last of which
Arky Vaughn said "I have never seen three home runs
hit harder than the Babe hit them that day, especially
the last one. I’m here to tell you it was the longest hit
ever made in Pittsburgh. That’s a day I’ll never forget."

When compared to Babe Ruth once, Reggie Jackson
denied the comparison saying “There will never be
another Babe Ruth. He was the greatest home run
hitter who ever lived.” (baseballhall.org) This game was
not even close to the highlight of his career, but to see
the Sultan of Swat go out in style like that was sure to
have pleased fans.
