1903. They Shared their playing field with the NY Giants, (now SF Giants) @ polo grounds in manhattan until 1929 when they built yankee stadium on revenue alone. Rumors say it was because Ruth brought sold out crowds every game, hence the name "The House that Ruth Built" Peace

Babe Ruth was 17-5 against the Yankees.  That's a .773 winning percentage, and about the best that I can find.

$100\n\nThere was only as high as a $100,000 bill from the 1930's to my knowlege. A collector's item $1,000,000 was printed in 1988 on real currency paper, but they're only selling for $15-50 a piece. There was never a real $1,000,000 bill printed by the U.S. Treasury.

There were no African-Americans in the Major Leagues in 1920, so some could argue that the league was watered down with out the inclusion of some of those fine athletes.  Also, there were far less teams in Major League Baseball in 1920 than there are today, this could, in fact, be an arguement that it was more difficult to become a Major Leaguer in 1920 than today.  It is also important to bring up the salaries that the players receive for playing Major League Baseball.  For better or for worse, salaries in today's game are vastly larger than they ever were in 1920.  In 1920, many players had to have other jobs during the off season in order to make a living.  The off season training of today's athletes is also leaps and bounds ahead of where it was in 1920.  In 1920, the players simply played the game and didn't lift weight or watch what they ate.  Look at Babe Ruth for an example of this, he routinely crammed down hot dogs in between doubleheaders and was a notorious drinker.  Babe Ruth also probably never touched a weight in his life.  Could you imagine how he would have been if he had been on the sort of off season training regimine that today's athletes are on???  But that's another topic altogether.  Another thing to look at would be the pitchers statistics.  In 1920, pitchers were EXPECTED to finsh games that they started.  In today's games starting pitchers are credited with a "quality start" if they complete 6 innings.  The role of the bullpen and closers has also grown greatly since 1920 as a result of this.  An example of this would be how Bruce Sutter is the first solely relief pitcher to be elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame.  I hope that you got a few ideas from this, good luck with your paper. I would think you could whip it out no problem on this topic!

Not very much unless it is signed or has something else quite special about it.  These items were made in great quanities and there are many in good shape still around.  I would doubt you could get more than 25% - %50 of the origanal purchase price for it at this time.  The best place to check the going rate on such items is EBay.

Lou Gehrig did it in 1931 with 184 RBI's. He also hit 46 HR's and batted .341 for the season.\nThe guy was a stud.

First of all Babe Ruth was NOT FAT. His playing height and weight for most of his career was 6'2" 215lbs. Hardly fat. Everyone else around him was smaller for the most part. He was truly a larger athlete. I think I read a study once that said his body type would be most comparable in today's game to Rich Aurillia now of the Cincinnati Reds. A middle infielder in today's game.\n\nThat said. Whether it be coming out of High School (most likely) or College Babe Ruth would be a pitcher in today's game. Because he wouldn't have the mass to take pitches out the way modern sluggers do. He'd most likely be developed fully into a starting pitcher for a National League club (so he can hit). A successful pitcher at that. Most likely a "crafty" lefty in the mold of Tom Glavine. He'd probably win 300 games. Many who played with him said he was such a good pitcher he'd have won 350 games. He'd also be one of the more prolific hitting pitchers out there right now.

It's probably worth a good bit of money if it's an original issue (i.e. while he was still and active player) and in good condition.\n\nDickey was the 2nd best catcher in Yankee history (after Yogi Berra) and is considered by some 'historians' to be the best catcher in the A.L during the 30s, although he didn't have all that many  great years, and Mickey Cochrane was better.\n\nBut Dickey is in the Hall of Fame, so it should be worth something.
