Home runs don't always win ball
games.
In the Sc games out of which
Babe Ruth coined his 80 up to Aug,
Z, the BambinO only cinched 10
with his four-base lick. This is Civ

games from resulting in tie scores.

And in 10 games in which BAN

His smuggling has been an ex-

All the Yanks swing from the

He has made two home runs in
three games each in piling up his

Ten of his clouts have been reg
istered off Detroit pitchers-the
greatest number he has made of of
any one club.
This is due to the fact that TT
