To this day, Babe Ruth's called shot in Game 3 of the 1932 World Series has sparked much debate, and this very program may shed some light on the legend. This 6x9" card stock program is immaculately scored and dated in pencil from the game at Wrigley Field on October 1. The scorer apparently added a notation across the top of the card indicating, "Babe Ruth Pointed to CF and Then Hit a HR Into That Spot off C. Root." Believe what you will, but this 12-page program is in VG-EX condition, showing a little wear on the binding but remaining intact. The back cover also features a great color illustration of the Friendly Confines, which witnessed the Bronx Bombers complete the four-game sweep.
