The Miraculous Journey into Baseball
Discovering the Diamond
Young Ruth stumbled into baseball as if he tripped over a diamond. He quickly turned heads with his natural talent, hitting homers while still figuring out which end of the bat to hold. His first team, the Baltimore Orioles, was the start of something big—bigger than his appetite for hot dogs, at least!
The Baltimore Bash
Ruth’s time with the Orioles was short but sweet, like a home run over the left field fence. He was soon scooped up by the Boston Red Sox, leaving behind a trail of broken records and broken windows. His journey from a local hero to a national sensation had only just begun.
