I could not be a bigger Ohtani fan, but one more point in defense of Ruth. Think of what pitchers were able to get away with back then when they might only use a few balls per game. The dirt, grime, scuffs, etc. that got onto those balls must have given those pitchers so many extra tricks that Ruth had to deal with. For so many reasons like that it's borderline impossible to compare players across different eras. Sure is fun to try though!
