Babe Ruth would have gotten 1000, if only he had cut down on the smoking, the drinking, and the sex, especially between innings.
Ted Williams hit 521 homeruns despite missing 4 1/2 seasons in the prime of his career for military service during WWII and the Korean War.
He would have come close to Babe Ruth’s record of 714.
Babe would have knocked rod’s teeth down his throat... Babe would have no part of these so called players of today. Babe was a real alpha male... the money was not why he played the game... but he liked what it did for him.
Babe once said, “Money cannot buy love... but it will buy something so close that you can’t tell the difference”.
