“Oh, make no mistake, the Babe is still here, still out in the land, his shadow enveloping his sport, as well as his country, in a way nobody — in any profession — has ever been able to duplicate. He is still the most memorable man who ever wore a uniform. He is Babe Ruth, the greatest of all time.” (Source: Mike Barnicle, ESPN)

“He had the most famous face in the world. If he appeared out of the grave today everyone would know who he was.” (Source: Ray Robinson, New York Times)

Mike and the Babe appeared together in HBO’s The Curse of the Bambino. The Babe also made it on ESPN’s SportsCenter as one of the “top ten plays of the day.”
