there are some, like "Babe," "The Sultan of the Swat," the "The King of Crash," "The Colosus of Clout," and "Bambino."

He was known by these names because he was the greatest MLB hitter (better than Hank Aaron or Barry Bonds), hitting about 45 homers a year since the lively ball era in 1920, hit 714 home runs in just 8,400 at-bats, and hit 60 in 1927, a 154-game schedule record. He hit .342 with a .474 OBP, a .690 SLG%, a 1.164 OPS, 2,213 RBI, 2,174 runs, 2,062 walks, 5,793 total bases, a 207 OPS+, 15 World Series home runs, 41 games played, 37 World Series runs, 42 World Series hits, 33 World Series RBI, hit 3 homers in two different World Series games, hit .625 in a World Series, pitched 29 straight World Series shutout innings, played in 10 World Series and won 7 World Series, all among and the best of all time today, 75 years later, on the nose. That is how the great Babe earned those five special nicknames.
