People will believe whatever they want on Ruth’s “called shot” but if Charlie Root or Gabby Hartnett had any impression that Ruth was pointing to centerfield predicting a home run on the next pitch then Ruth would have been eating dirt after that pitch from being brushed back by Root. It bothered Root until his dying breath that he was the fall guy of a myth.
