Hello Gershon, I loved the Babe and he is certainly a legacy to write about. I saw a baseball card from, I believe, 1919 of the Babe that sold for millions. If I were only so lucky. Thanks for the memories!! Spring Blessings, My Friend, Daniel

Yes Gershon the Babe could put them down. I am sure if he entered the hot dog eating contest at Cony Island he would be a winner... Incredibly he could still play baseball...
