Babe Ruth


Babe Ruth was one of the best baseball players that have ever lived. He had a challenging childhood; his mother passed away, and his father was very busy running a business. He led the New York Yankees, to seven World Series. He was also one of the first five players to make it into the hall of fame. He really showed personal growth in his life, he came from nothing and turned into an incredible baseball player.
            George Herman Ruth had eight kids in his family. He was raised in a poor family. He was raised in a poor family. His father owned a tavern, so he rarely spent time with his family. I think this information is very important, because it shows even if your family isn’t wealthy you can still follow your dreams. His mom died while he was young, that toke a very big toll on him, and that struggle made him even stronger.
            Babes’ greatest accomplishment is that he led the Yankees to seven World Series. He had 56 major batting records before he passed away. He was one of the first five players to make it into the Hall of Fame. Total in his lifetime he had 714 home runs. I believe this is some of his greatest accomplishments, because all of these things are incredible. Not many baseball players have accomplished these things in their lifetime.
            The aspect of the student creed that he follows is personal growth. He came up from nothing and no support and made it to the top. A lot of people come from bad circumstances, but that is no excuse to not to be successful. Babe was born into the great depression, and didn’t feel much love from his parents. He took baseball in and put a lot of passion into it. He was very grateful for all that he had. I think he was very grateful, for every last thing he had and because of that it made him an amazing person.
            Babe Ruth really showed personal growth in his lifetime. He was treated very bad when he was younger. He helped the New York Yankees go to seven World Series. I think every one could reach their dream. Just like Babe Ruth did. He had a great influence on me and showed me you can do anything you want if you set your mind to it. We should all have the motivation to reach our dreams just like Babe Ruth!

1.Putting most of the important information on Babe Ruth is something good you did on you're essay.
2.On the second paragraph you repeated the second sentence two times.Haha. I do the same sometimes too. I think if you fixed that it'll all be cool.And some misspelled words.
3. Something I learned about this essay is that Babe Ruth led the New York Yankees, to seven World Series. and GOOD JOB.
