• But the Bambino slugged 29 in 1919, 54 in 1920 and reached the Holy Grail of 60 in 1927.
• He finished his career with 714, breaking Roger Connor’s record of 138.
• Ruth – with his larger-than-life presence, rags-to-riches life story and capacity for hitting home runs galore – was baseball’s salvation.
• Worse, when African American star Henry Aaron reached 715 career home runs in 1974, he received racially motivated death threats.

Carouser and Catholic

• Anti-Catholic sentiment was prevalent in the United States during Ruth’s era, and his proud demonstrations of his Catholic faith helped ameliorate that prejudice.
• It was public knowledge that he attended mass frequently and gave generously to Catholic charities.
• He married in the church twice – the second time after his first, estranged wife died, reflecting Catholic teachings on divorce and remarriage.
• He lived out the Catholic cycle of sin and repentance regularly throughout his life, expanding American society’s awareness of the Catholic value of forgiveness.
• One hundred thousand people lined the route as his coffin was transported to Gate of Heaven Catholic Cemetery in Valhalla, New York.
