This Babe Ruth Baseball Stat on Queen Elizabeth II is Still Ridiculous
Follow Us
MLB legend Babe Ruth was arguably the greatest player ever to grace the game of baseball. With his hitting capabilities and unbelievable gameplay, the Yankees great made the game even more entertaining. Hence, he has always been credited with taking the game into the mainstream.
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.

Notably, Queen Elizabeth is currently 95 years old, and she was born on April 21, 1926. While Babe Ruth was in his prime at that time, he used to hit home runs to pitchers for fun.

After playing for 6 years with the Red Sox, he moved to the New York Yankees. That is where he established himself as a legendary player. However, after playing 15 seasons for the Yankees, Ruth didn’t play his last season for them. And instead, he went to the Boston Braves (now Atlanta Braves) and then retired in the 1935 season.
