I am sending this over to Richard Simon for authentication. IF it is a genuine Ruth and IF it is not traced over, it will be available for sale shortly. 1920 Babe Ruth with others including Lefty O'Doul, Fred Hofmann, Carl Mays, Herb Thormahlen and what looks to me to be Jeff Tesreau.

I'm hoping he gets the Jim Rice treatment and the media / writers forgive him. He's certainly more qualified for the HOF than Rice and ended his career by driving in 100 runs 9 years in a row.

True. If you ever question why someone is in the HOF, you might find your answer by looking at those who are not.

Im not sure albert "joey" belle should be in the hall. I caught him at the Orioles spring training one year, he only signed for kids or women. Luckily I had my gf at the time get a 97 bowman signed, it is an albert belle sig though, I still have it, saw it this week in a binder of IP/TTM autos I have.

In my opinion he was a clean Manny Ramirez with a shorter career. If Manny is one of the greatest right handed hitters of all time without the juice, Albert sure is too. Three RBI titles in four seasons, homer title, total bases two years in a row, all while not cheating at the height of the steroid era while finishing top 10 in MVP five times in a 12 year career. That's a pretty good peak. And he wasn't even done when he had to retire.
