Day 76 Current Reading: partial list of the epithets of George Herman Ruth

Or consider what the late Negro league player Buck O’Neil had to say about the sound Ruth made when he hit the ball:

I had never heard that sound before, and I was outside the fence, but it was a sound of the bat that I had never heard before in my life. That was Ruth hitting the ball. And the next time I heard that sound, I'm in Washington, D.C., I rushed out, and there was Josh Gibson hitting the ball. And I heard this sound again. Now, I didn't hear it anymore. I'm in Kansas City, and I heard this sound one more time. that I hadn't heard only twice in my life. Now, you know who this is? Bo Jackson swinging the bat. And now I heard this sound. It was a thrill for me. I said, here it is again. I heard it again. I've only heard it three times in my life. But now I'm living because I'm going to hear it again one day if I live long enough.
