Default Seventy-five years ago today

Not sure where I am going with this but thought it should be acknowledged . . .
Today in baseball history: May 30, 1935 - Babe Ruth plays only the first inning of the opener of a doubleheader between Boston and Philadelphia at Baker Bowl‚ going 0-for-1. It is his final ML appearance.

Last pitcher to face Ruth is one Jim Bivin, 17 years in the minors with a cup of coffee-and-a-refill with the Phils in '35. No cards that I could find. (Bivin's stats: http://www.baseball-reference.com/pl...ivinji01.shtml )
