About this Quote

This quote by Joe DiMaggio speaks to the success of Babe Ruth and the impact he had on the game of baseball. DiMaggio was a famous player himself, and he was well aware of the impact Ruth had on the video game. He was an epic figure who changed the method the game was played and the way it was viewed by the public. DiMaggio was born in 1914, so he never had the chance to watch Ruth play face to face. He had the ability to experience the greatness of Ruth through stories and highlights, but he never had the adventure of viewing him play in person. This quote speaks with the success of Ruth and the effect he had on the video game, and it likewise speaks to the regret DiMaggio felt for never having the opportunity to view him play.
