This image features the multi-talented Babe Ruth. Not only was his offensive prowess legendary, but he also spent the early part of his big league career as one of the top left-handed pitchers in the game. The two-time 20-game winner with the Boston Red Sox was sold to the New York Yankees before the 1920 season, where he was converted to a full time outfielder and became baseball’s first great slugger. The “Sultan of Swat” would eventually lead his new team to seven American League pennants and four World Series titles, finishing his career with 714 home runs, including 60 in 1927, a record which stood for 34 years.
