Babe Ruth and Joe Jackson before the game

The photograph was taken at Comiskey Park on June 16, 1920, before the Yankees vs. White Sox game in which Ruth hit his 18th homer of the season.

Ruth will go on to hit 714 homeruns and Jackson will be suspended from baseball after the season for his actions during the 1919 World Series.
