Babe Ruth 1927 Spring Training Signed (16) Official Baseball. Yankees & Reds. PSA
Official National League (Frick) baseball signed in steel tip fountain pen ink. A remarkably nice example of Babe Ruth’s auto from 1926/27 Spring Training in West Palm Beach, Florida during the height of Ruth’s career and Miller Huggins’ New York Yankees. The ball features 16 signatures including Hall of Famers George L. Kelly & Eppa Rixey. Some usual toning and moderate soiling to the ball and some fading to the signature. Fortunately, the Ruth signature remains extremely bright. Full letter of authenticity from PSA.

Babe Ruth, a true baseball legend, left an indelible mark on the sport, and his statistics tell a story of unparalleled greatness. With 714 home runs, he held the record for most career home runs for nearly four decades. His astonishing .690 slugging percentage remains the highest in MLB history, underscoring his extraordinary power at the plate. Not to be forgotten is his remarkable pitching prowess, boasting a career 2.28 ERA.
Ruth's 60 home runs in a single season set a record that stood for 34 years, a testament to his unmatched hitting prowess. His 457 total bases in 1921 were a staggering achievement, reflecting his ability to change the course of a game with one swing.
But beyond the numbers, Babe Ruth's charisma and impact on the sport extended far beyond the diamond, making him a beloved American icon. His statistics are not just records; they are the milestones of a true baseball immortal.
