Did Babe Ruth sign his name with "rabbit ears" on the signture early in his career?

I don't think it was intentional, but I'm not sure. The loop of the "R" tends to have the floppy ear appearance. This could be caused by signing on the round ball as opposed to a flat book or paper. If you do a google image search for Babe Ruth autograph/signature you'll see what I mean.

Babe Ruth played for both the Red Sox and the Yankees, as did Roger Clemens and now Johnny Damon plays for the Yankees.  They don't care.  It's just business.

Mariano Riveria is wearing it with the Yankees right now.\n\nThey retired the number for Jackie Robinson but anyone who was wearing it at the time was aloud to keep it.

That would be Harry Chiti and Cleveland.  It also happened to Dickie Noles on the Cubs in 1987.

It looks from this bio that he was an announcer and never played professionally...  Looks like he announced in the 1950's to 1963, not sure when for the Angels...

If you're saying was Babe Ruth the start of that dynasty, then I would have to say the answer is yes.\nBefore Babe Ruth the yankees havent won a WS.\nSo perhaps he was the catalyst.\n\nThe Yankees won their very first WS in 1923, 3 years after Ruth joined them....and as we all know (how can we forget?) The Yankees have won 25 more WS (for a total of 26, again how can we forget?).

Yes. There have been many deaf players in the major leagues. The last one being Curtis Pride, who played with the Tigers and (I believe) the Mets. The earliest player recorded was Dummy Hoy, who I believe played for the Reds.

That would be Eddie Gaedel, the midget that batted once for the St. Louis Browns back in the early 50's, maybe 1952 or '53.  He wore number 1/8 and was walked in his only plate appearance.  The owner who signed him was the legendary Bill Veeck, who was the master of the unusual promotion.  Gaedel was supposed to be a "Brownie."  St. Louis Browns...get it?  Since he walked, he ended up with no at bats, and a batting average of .000.  Not sure of the year, but it was before 1954, because that was the year the Browns moved to Baltimore and became the Orioles.

Sounds like Babe Ruth, but I could be wrong.

The sale\n\nIn the early part of 1920, Red Sox owner Harry Frazee agreed to sell Babe to the New York Yankees. Frazee and Jacob Ruppert, Yankee owner, agreed to exchange Ruth for $125,000 and a loan of more than $300,000. The deal was completed on January 3, 1920.

What "babe's record" are you talking about?\n\nIf you mean Homeruns, that record belongs to Hank Aaron.\n\nGeorge Herman Ruth's homeruns are meaningless when it concerns the #1 record of all time.\n\nwho cares about breaking the #2 record when it means nothing.

A disc-jockey named JC Cochran gave them that name in the 80's,They were battling it out with the Cardinals for supremacy of the NL. This guy was a controversy on the radio every day (and still is)

Vin Scully, the famed Dodger baseball broadcaster has been in feuds with both Rory Emerald and Barry Bonds for years.  His contempt for Bonds is strictly related to the alleged steroid use and the shame it has brought to his beloved game, combined with Bond’s aloof and distant nature. \n\n His dispute with Rory Emerald has been going on since 1973.  At that time, Scully was a young broadcaster in the city of Los Angeles and Rory Emerald was well known for his movie productions and screenplays.  It appears that Emerald had a romantic interest in Ron Cey, the LA Dodgers dashing third baseman.  At the same time, Scully was also enamored with the ballplayer dubbed “the Little Penguin”.  Both Scully and Emerald vied for the Dodger player’s love and affection.  Emerald wrote Cey a love song, which he produced at a studio and got played on the airwaves for a brief time in July of 1973.  The song, dubbed “Say it’s Cey” was an overnight sensation.  Ron Cey was flattered by the attention of the celebrity, and started to be won over.  Scully, not to be outdone by his competition, started to compliment Ron Cey with each plate appearance.  It got to the point of absurdity.  Scully started losing his professional objectivity, and was constantly discussing the attributes of the rising star, even when the other team was hitting.  As an example, on the KTLA broadcast of August 17, 1973, with the Dodgers playing the Phillies here is part of the transcript….”Now Luzinski batting…he is batting a paltry .217 when Ron Cey is at third base” and later in the same broadcast “Schmidt at the plate for the Phil’s, and look at Ron Cey over at third base, his muscular legs digging in, for a potential groundball, his arms tanned and studly” and finally “The Phillies are trailing 4-2 with two out in the ninth, and look at Ron Cey, smiling like a Greek God, waiting for that final out”.  Ron Cey was interested in both men as romantic suitors, but his relationship with Rory Emerald started to sour when Emerald insisted that Cey start wearing a dress during liaisons.  He tried to break it off with Emerald, but it was difficult for Cey to resist his considerable charms.  Finally, after a lot of soul searching, Ron Cey decided Vin Scully would be a better love interest.  He broke up with Emerald, who then produced the song “I got to Third base” which was another big hit.  Emerald was always bitter towards Scully after he lost this competition, and never forgave Ron Cey.  Ron Cey stayed with Scully for several years, then they parted ways.  It was rumored that Scully then hooked up with Harvey Lembeck, though there is no concrete evidence to support this claim.  Ron Cey finally married Steve Garvey in a civil ceremony in 1994 outside of San Jose, California.
