While it is true the Sox have finished last in the American League in the years since Ruth’s departure, there are still many reasons to be glad to be rid of him. We knew in Boston that Ruth was more trouble than he was worth. A carouser, a drunk, a womanizer, and a hot head, Ruth had as many run-ins with the local police as he did with umpires at Fenway Park. This was emphasized recently when Ruth ignored an MLB decision to bar World Series players from participating in exhibition games, a decision which earned him a six-week suspension. Upon his return he was suspended again for three games after arguing with an umpire and yelling at a fan. This is the type of behaviour Bostonians would not put up with! While one could easily point to the rather impressive year Ruth had in ’21, it is clear it wasn’t enough as the Yankees were not able to capture the Pennant. And while New York fans will have to be shouldered with the respon- sibility of caring for this overgrown buffoon, the fans in Boston will have a rebuilt team in no time that will certain- ly have many prosperous seasons and World Series victo- ries in it’s future.
