Right before the World Series last fall, our newspaper (and
probably many others across the country printed a summary of
World Series records. Among them were two lists - one of the
top 10 World Series Hitters (I think by batting average) and the
top 10 World Series Pitchers (by ERA). The interesting thing
about the lists was the name "Babe Ruth". Oddly enough, he was
not one of the top 10 hitters, but one of the top 10 pitchers.
I believe his ERA was around .50. I wonder at what point he
switched from pitching to outfield. Anybody know when and which
team he was playing for at the time. (I don't know so don't ask
me for the answer. But I am sure that someone surely must know).
