April 27 is National Babe Ruth Day, It is the day that the Yankees invited him back to celebrate him and how amazing he was in 1947.  Babe Ruth is one of the greatest baseball players ever. George Herman Ruth, Jr. started his career as a pitcher with the Boston Red Sox. He helped the Red Sox win three 'World Series' in 1915, 1916 and 1918. He was with the  Red Sox from 1914-1919.

His legend status didn't come until he became a Yankee from 1920-1934. He helped the Yankees win 1923, 1927, 1928 and 1932 World Series.

He is the home run champion for both teams. Babe Ruth is 'The King of Swing', the 'Sultan of Swat' and to most 'The Great Bambino.'

Babe Ruth, 'The King of Baseball' died on Aug.16, which ironically is the same date that  Elvis 'The King Of Rock n Roll', and Robert Johnson 'The King of the Blues' died.

Happy Babe Ruth day and may he live on forever.
