we never saw Ruth

but the fact that he changed the game so incredibly and would hit more homeruns than multiple combined teams team totals is nuts

add to that, that he would have been a hall of famer had he stuck with Pitching and he still holds pitching records

2.28 ERA and 94 wins over 1200 innings is better than 98% of all starting pitchers of all time
