The Baltimore Orioles were in the Minor Leagues then. They sold his contract to the AL Boston Red Sox, that's where he started his MLB career.

Yes true. But there was another "balitmore orioles" before that turned into the new york Yankees.

Babe Ruth is the greatest legend in American history.
Thanks for sharing! Loved the photos and stories here about the ‘Bambino’!⚾️🇺🇸 Subbed you up!
The first all-star game was in 1933. Ruth retired in the middle of 1935. He was a two time all-star.
❤️ babe Ruth my hero. Super great baseball ⚾️ homerun hitter & baseball player
Hit more home runs than every team in the A.L. on two different occasions.
Horrific job. So many factual errors.
OOOOOOOOOOOOO-K, some interesting photos here.
Babe Ruth is a bigger than life individual. Ruths last game was 1935 around 94 years, and in another 100 years, we will still be talking about Ruth.
❤️ babe Ruth my hero
Nice piece, Anyone in sports would be great. Let you know in the future thanks. 👍👍
This video says Ruth was a 12x All-Star (he made 2 MLB All-Star teams). Wrong, he won 1 MVP, not 2. He won 4 WS championships with the Yankees, not 7 as the video says. I suspect many of the other "facts" are wrong too.

💯Mickey mantle won 7 WS championships way more than Ruth
Fact: Many of your facts are wrong. One example, he didn't lead the Yankees to seven world series championships, he won seven world series but 3 with the Red Sox. Another is he hit 60 home runs in 1927 not 59, he wasn't a 12 time all star he was a 2 time all star , that's because the first all star game was played in 1933 he was however a 12 time home run leader and he only won MVP once not twice
Ruth only led the Yankees to four WS Championships, seven appearances.
0:01 Geez...what a horrible shot of the ol' bambino. He was a homely dude. That's for sure.
He hit 59 home runs in 1919. 0:55, [ incorrect! ] & then you say 1:15, that he broke the single-season record in 1921 with 54 home runs (that’s mathematically incorrect, as 54 is less than 59) (and besides that the date of 1921 is incorrect) big thumbs down from me. 👎👎👎👎👎 - Edit. The above with edited for clarity & to eliminate ambiguity.

OMG there are so many things wrong with the "facts" here. If he set the single-season home run record with 54 in 1920, as the video states, how could he hit five more the year before. Furthermore, how could that be when the record he broke (29) was his own from 1919? How could he be a 12-time All Star when the first All Star Game was in 1933, and Ruth's last year was 1935? One MVP, not two. And...Baseball Reference lists him as only a 2-time All Star.
He started with the Baltimore Orioles in 1914? Come on even some one that never watch a baseball game and tell you that’s completely wrong. Big 👎👎👎👎👎
