Default Ruth Photo

Not my normal pick up (first photo I have bought) but something just sort of drew me to it and the price was right as well.

I guess so maybe he didn't like the guy that much and just did a crappy signature, lol. What I am assuming it was already probably signed and he posed like he was signing it?

OK just looked up some photos of him signing autographs and it seems he signed with his right hand.

I have played baseball and softball for 46 yrs running. I throw and bat left handed. I write right handed. It's not that uncommon. Nice photo btw....

I'm a right-hander for everything except handwriting. Not that big a deal.

Hardly unusual for a person in Ruth's day and age, and likely at St. Mary's, to get his left hand smacked with a ruler by a nun if he was writing that way. In fact, even when I was growing up my friends in Catholic school would tell me their similar experience.
When batting I started off emulating my right handed friends. It took me awhile to get the hang of it. And then I tried batting lefty -- that was like stepping inside a Claritin commercial! -- everything is crystal clear. So I ended up a switch hitter. Today, I do different tasks with different hands, but do not consider myself ambidextrous in the exact definition of the word.
