When Was Babe Ruths Last Home Run?
Babe Ruth hit his 714th and last major league home run, a towering out-of-the-park drive off of Pittsburg Pirates pitcher Guy Bush, on May 25, 1935. However, 11 years later, the owner of the Veracruz Blues of the Mexican League hired the famous slugger for $10,000 to come and bat once again in a game against the Mexico City Reds. The pitcher, Ramon Brazana threw three balls and was removed from the game by his coach. A reliever was brought into the game and threw his first pitch straight down the middle. The 51-year-old Babe Ruth hit it deeply into the right field bleachers, much to the delight of more than 10,000 Mexican fans. So, all in all, the last home run hit by Babe Ruth was his 715th home run hit and it was hit in Mexico City, Mexico.
