August 12, 1934 - 41,766 turn out to Fenway Park to see what will probably be Babe Ruth's last game in Boston. In game one of the doubleheader, Ruth goes 2 for 5 with a double, but misplays a Billy Werber line drive into a triple. Ruth is 0 for 1 with two walks in the second game, leaving in the 6th inning. He will in fact return to Hubtown in 1935, when he finishes his playing career with the Boston Braves.
