Summary

The mighty swing of Babe Ruth is shown in all its grace, power and swatness through the use of slow motion. He is also seen striking out in normal speed. The batting skills of Cleveland Indians star Tris Speaker and New York Yankees Wallie Pipp, Yankee Robert William Meusel, the underhand pitching style of Yankee Carl Mays and the overhand pitching delivery of the Yankee Jack Quinn are also displayed through slow motion. Fans are shown entering and leaving the Cleveland Indians stadium. Some of the action of the game between the Yankees and Indians is presented in both normal speed and slow motion.
