text: Babe Ruth. He was a pitcher for the Boston before he became a pernament outfielder and hitter. he wanted to be in the game everyday, so he worked on his hitting. when he was traded to the Yankees, he became one of the best home run hitters of all time. He has a carreer of 714 homers. he also has a record of hitting 60 homers in a season, but it has been broken by several players (Ex: Roger Maris, Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa).

He went 23–12, with a 1.75 ERA and 9 shutouts in 1916; the shutout mark is still tied for the best mark for an A.L. left hander. in 1917, he was 24-13 and he has an average of .325. he has a carreer of 94 wins, 46 losses, a  2.24 ERA, and 488 strike outs.
