The 1925 season was a "bummer" for the Yankees. Babe Ruth was batting only .266 in August. The Yankees were in St. Louis, where Ruth
arrived late before the first game (the Yankees lost it 1-0). This was their 7th straight loss. Miller Huggins had completely lost patience with Ruth. Huggins phoned Col. Ruppert and Ed Barrow to get his bosses’ approval to suspend Ruth. The Yankees took the field for batting practice in St. Louis on August 29, Ruth was late again. So, Huggins told him.... “No use putting on that uniform, you are not playing.” "I’ve come to the decision you’re fined $5,000 and suspended for missing curfew last night and being late today.” Ruth finally realized how serious Huggins was. And, during the month of September (1925), Ruth raised his BA to .290 and hit 10 - HR's. TED Z . |
