The old legend's looking heavy

and slow out there in the outfield!

On the mound,

Guy Bush!

Tough when you can't run the

bases for yourself no more!

Ain't that right, old man?

Why don't you retire?

You're

embarrassing yourself.

I wanna knock this

down your throat!!!

so you'll stop sucking

on your mother's tit!

Watch that language! That ain't

language! That's information!

That's privileged information! So consider

yourself privileged and just call the game!

Let's play ball!

Get a wheelchair, Ruth.

Let's play ball.

Strike him out!

Strike!

I seen him when he used to

knock 'em to kingdom come!

Babe, you're bleedin'!

You're spittin' blood!

Maybe you should--

Go sit down!

Let's go, Babe.

No way, Babe. No way. Let's go.

It looks like a play

on the mythical called shot!!!

against

Bush's Cubs of'32!

What's all the booing? He's goofy!

Hmph!

Open your eyes

next time!

Babe Ruth has hit one

over the wall!

Folks, no one-- no one has ever

hit the ball out of Forbes Field!

Oh, my goodness!

No way! Let's

hold them right there.

Boston's sixth

and Babe Ruth is up!

The Pittsburgh fans are

giving him a hard time.

Come on, lazybones!

Go home.

Go back to New York.

Go back!

Things are getting tense

here in the eighth inning...

as Babe Ruth

takes up the bat!

He has stunned this Pittsburgh

crowd by hitting two homers today!!!

and he has put the first balls

ever out of this massive park!

Go sit down!

Babe! Babe! Babe!

Babe! Babe! Babe!

Babe!

Babe! Babe!

Mr! Ruth?

Mr! Ruth?

I want to give you this!

I'm Johnny Sylvester!

You came to see me in the

hospital years ago when I was sick!

You hit

two home runs for me!

You gave me this ball!

It's worked a lot of magic

for me!!!

and I just want to

give it back to you now!

Thank you!

I'm gone,Johnny!

I'm gone!

You're the best!

You're the best

there's ever been!
