The Called Shot...Babe Ruths called shot was the home run hit by Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees in the fifth inning of Game 3 of the 1932 World Series, held on October 1, 1932, at Wrigley Field in Chicago. During the at-bat, Ruth made a pointing gesture, which existing film confirms, but the exact nature of his gesture remains ambiguous. Although neither fully confirmed nor refuted, the story goes that Ruth pointed to the center field bleachers during the at-bat. It was allegedly a declaration that he would hit a home run to this part of the park. On the next pitch, Ruth hit a home run to center field. The Reality (from the Chains of the Sea) What does it means that God loves baseball? Here is what it means! Keep lean and strong and clean, Keep spirited and keen. Play ball means something more than runs Or pitches thudding into gloves! Remember through the summer suns This is the game your country loves! He was openly weeping. I peered into the dark. Loneliest snapped his fingers and we all came to attention. All right, the situation is this. God has been watching the Called Shot in the 32 series over and over and over. At the same time, Hitler takes power. Lets be very clear about just what the Hell we have to do. Very clear. I have a ball in my pocket. It wasn’t there before. I also have a box of crackerjacks. I didn’t have that before. I don’t know that God gave me the mojo. I’ll check later but at this instant it looks like God won’t be paying attention to the 20th century. This means the Nazis will come, and in the next century, Flit Doomney will become president of the United States. Again, lets be very clear about just what the Hell we have to do. Very clear.” We looked at him in wonder and fear. Guys, he said with infinite sadness. “Guys …We have to kill Babe Ruth! Then…then! Loneliest cried out. Look out! Its the Jim Jims. He was right. No, he was wrong. But then again, he was right. There was a screeching of tires and a pair of headlights came around the corner stabbing through the rainy dusk. I knew something was wrong. It was a 1934 Franklin Model 19A and it wasnt 1934! But Loneliest was the first to react as blue fire spat from the windows of the air cooled, powerful and beautifully designed coach of death.
