I was born by the seashore
The sunshine and salt spray quenched my thirst. The sand bar and pluff mud was my playground . Shirtless little boys climbing majestic oaks dreaming of pirates and treasure unaware that paradise is lost before it’s found .

"When the season ended, Babe Ruth received hundreds and hundreds of invitations to barnstorm anywhere he wanted.
Of the approximately fifteen games that Babe selected, five were against Negro League teams.
Three of those contests were played in Philadelphia while the other two were contested in Buffalo.
Babe Ruth then sailed to Cuba, where he joined John McGraw’s Giants to play nine more contests versus a combination of Latino and Negro ballplayers.
Again, the message was clear:
"If the sports’ most transcendent figure played without reservation against Black
ballplayers, why shouldn’t everyone else?"
"Babe Ruth and The Issue of Race".
Bill Jenkinson.
Babe Ruth poses with black fans, highlighting a lesser-known side of the legendary baseball player.
According to baseball historian Bill Jenkinson, Ruth was not racist and took a stand against segregation in sports.
Unlike many of his contemporaries, he chose to play games against Negro League teams in the late 1920's, a period when most white players and teams refused such interactions.
Babe Ruth didn’t just play; he actively engaged with black players, sitting with them in dugouts, socializing before and after games, and mingling in segregated stands.
Babe Ruth scheduled games in locations where interracial competition was not only against social norms, but also illegal.
Julia Ruth Stevens, Babe Ruth’s daughter, believes that her father’s appreciation for black players likely hurt his chances of becoming a manager for a Major League Baseball team in the years before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier.
Babe Ruth’s actions, while not widely publicized, reflect his progressive stance and respect for all players, regardless of race.
