Babe Ruth Bats in St. Louis
Description
A slide of a black-and-white action photo of Babe Ruth in a game at Sportsman's Park in St. Louis. The picture is taken from behind. Ruth wears a New York Yankees road uniform, and he at the far right. He has turned and faces the camera, the lettering visible on his jersey. He holds the bat vertically with both hands. An unknown catcher is in the center and is coming out of his crouch. To the far left, an unknown umpire stands with his right leg bent at the knee. In the background, fans can be seen in the outfield stands.
