I wish they would stop pitching him and just have him hit as I am afraid pitching will cut his numbers down at the plate career wise.
Not many bigger baseball stat nerds then myself but Ruth played in a time that many players had actual jobs
I recall reading about a guy that would install roofs all day and would pitch 9 innings because back then they didn't bring in specialist type of relievers and Ruth would see the same pitcher 3 or 4 times every game.
Not taking anything away from Ruth because he was amazing for such a long time
Side note I know/knew Bonilla very well as we came into the league and retired close to the same time and he was a huge ass
