-To me Ruth seemed like a wierd and crazy person. He was 4 inches and 25 pounds larger than the average major leager. Babe Ruth could eat 2.5 pounds of steak for dinner and he use to tell his wife not to bother to cook his meat because he ate it raw and uncooked. He still managed to stay healthy and play baseball. He use to swear knowing that it will get him in trouble and he was going to be benched. Rut had a mind of his own.

That's what counts.
