Babe Ruth's final great moments in baseball occurred on May 25, 1935 at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh. He was an aging player who had been traded three months earlier by the New York Yankees to the Boston Braves of the National League. But the woeful Braves got off to a bad start and Ruth's skills began deteriorating.

Against the Pirates, Ruth hit three home runs (No. 712, No. 713 and No. 714 of his career) with six runs batted in. But the Braves lost the game 11-7.

In his final game at Philadelphia, Ruth struck out in the first inning and then left the game after injuring a knee in the field. He retired days later with a .181 batting average and six home runs in 72 at bats.
