Ruth was actually pretty fast. He also wasn't fat until later in his career. The dude was a legit stud athlete and he stole a lot of bases. He also wasn't the pull hitter he seems to be here. He hit to all fields consistently.

[@someperson8151]

He had 136 career triples. Barry Bonds only had 77. Kenny Lofton had 135. Ruth was an athlete. Swung a 54 ounce bat when today's Major Leaguers swing 32 to 34 ounce bats and those bats are carefully selected by the latest technology.

[@DP-ol5uv]

Players today are playing in much smaller ball parks with a juiced up rocket ball vs spacious ball parks Baseballs then we’re barely hard enough to keep their shape when hit. That is why players before the 1940’s had to swing 40oz bats to strike the ball with enough force to propel it to the outfield. No one not no one could swing Babe’s bat and do what he did in the ball parks he played. Instead of projecting yesterday’s players in today’s game…let’s take today’s players and put them in yesterday players environment. Hugh spacious ball parks, soft baseballs, heavy bats, train rides, day games, and a strike zone that was at the knees to arm pits. A lack of physical conditioning, no nutrition, and no supplements…to aide the body to be stronger….today’s athletes have all the advantages that players up to the 1970’s didn’t have, advanced equipment, favorable changes in the rules….small ball parks, small strike zones, etc….

[@adamrobinette6832]

What made Ruth great was extremely quick hand eye coordination, which led to a quick swing and reaction. With zero sports science available back then, if you look at this swing, it was actually really mechanically sound. You take his genetic abilities, and that swing, and put him through today's training and sports science, he would be a beast. Because what made him genetically an extremely difficult out back then would absolutely translate to today. In fact, trained up to today's MLB standards, his genetic gifts of reaction time and his superhuman hand eye coordination may have made him able to hit 100 plus mph pitchers more efficiently than the average major leaguer today.

[@electriceyeslide5959]

First off, the players of today couldn't have played big league ball in Ruth's day. What a joke. Baseball scholar Bill Jenkinson wrote a book called "The Year Babe Ruth Hit 104 Home Runs". Read that book and it will set you straight on Ruth. Ruth was a freak of nature and hit more home runs than entire teams and many 500+ foot HRs off less velocity. Ruth would have hit a 1000+ HRs today.

Far more often Ruth's homers went out to the power alley in right center (429 feet) or center (490). Left center, the original Death Valley, was 470 feet from home plate, and Jenkinson's research shows Ruth often hit fly balls in that direction because he was usually pitched that way. Loud outs, those usually were. Best case, they padded his career triples total of 136, or a whopping 59 more than the once-speedy Bonds has. "I really want people to know how often this happened," Jenkinson says. "It was a regular occurrence." Here's another nugget: Bonds has hit 35 homers of 450-plus feet, all but three since Opening Day 2000. And those three, Jenkinson says, all were wind-aided according to government data. Ruth? He hit at least 245 balls of 450 feet or more, by Jenkinson's count. Jimmie Foxx is a distant second at 115. "As a power hitter Ruth just dwarfs everyone in the history of baseball," Jenkinson says. "There's nobody even close. As great as we believe him to have been, he was even better."
