Pundit Goes After Controversial MLB Player for Babe Ruth Conspiracy
Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong said he believed a conspiracy about Babe Ruth, and Chris Russo wasn't having it.
MLB star Pete Crow-Armstrong made headlines recently for his controversial opinion on Babe Ruth. On Kristin Cavallari's podcast "Let's Be Honest," Crow-Armstrong, along with Carson Kelly, was asked to share an unpopular opinion. The controversial statement "Babe Ruth never existed" was the one he called out. Crow-Armstrong admitted to finding it fascinating and decided to dive deeper into the conspiracy.
Later, Chris "Mad Dog" Russo took aim at Crow-Armstrong on "First Take." Russo expressed annoyance with the "MVP" for disparaging Babe Ruth's abilities, particularly in terms of home runs. Russo claimed that no player, past or present, has hit home runs like Ruth, including the current unicorn player, Shohei Ohtani. He also dismissed Crow-Armstrong's claim that pitchers in Ruth's era were pitching underhand.
Russo emphasized that Ruth's exceptional talent and versatility made him a unique player. Russo strongly urged his audience to research the matter before making such claims, stating that it would be a disgrace to question Ruth's legacy.
