Default ! (Red Sox)
Posted By: barrysloate

Harry Frazee ostensibly sold Ruth because he "needed money." The implication is if he needed money, he undersold him; however who's to say what a ballplayer is worth in 1920 dollars. I guess Ruth developed into a little bit better hitter than the Red Sox would have thought.
