Babe Ruth was quite sick when this photo was taken with Yogi. January 1947, Babe was diagnosed with throat cancer. According to the website Getty Images:
“ Larry "Yogi" Berra of the Yankees is seen here shaking hands with former Yankee legend Babe Ruth on Babe Ruth Day at Sportsman's Park in St. Louis.” According to Yogi’s Grand-daughter Lindsey ( via Twitter) “This pic is actually from Babe Ruth Day on June 19, 1948 at Sportsman's Park in St. Louis. Everyone thinks it's from #Yankees Stadium in 1947, but note that Gramp has no pinstripes. Babe would pass away two months later, on August 16th. https://twitter.com/lindsayberra/sta...65544648605698 Last edited by EddieP; 07-31-2023 at 01:49 PM.
