STOOPID FACTZ !!

Babe Ruth hit his first major-league home run on May 6, 1915. He was playing for the Boston Red Sox at the time. 'The Sultan of Swat' went on to smash 714 round-trippers before he retired, as a New York Yankee, in 1935.

Babe Ruth was able to throw two baseballs in such a way that the balls remained parallel to each other all the way from his hand to the catcher's glove. Ruth was famous for this stunt and would demonstrate it on request.

Babe Ruth wore a cabbage leaf under his hat while playng baseball, and he used to change it every two innings.

Babies are born with 300 bones, but by adulthood we have only 206 in our bodies.

Babies are born without knee caps. They don't appear until the child reaches 2 to 6 years of age.

Babies crawl an average of 200m a day

Babies' eyes do not produce tears until the baby is approximately six to eight weeks old.

Baby elephants can drink over 80 litres of milk a day.
