During his time, there was no better a player than Babe in Major League Baseball. Whenever he made an appearance in the ballpark, Ruth was feared by his oppositions. As he retired from baseball, he had a total of 714 home runs to his name, which was the highest at that time. However, later, Henry Aaron in 1974 and Barry Bonds in 2006 broke the record.

Regardless, there are many records that Babe Ruth made while playing on the ballparks. But this particular one stands out amongst all. Most baseball fans might not know, but Ruth has over 400 home runs after the birth of British royalty, Queen Elizabeth II.
