Babe Ruth was a star on the Boston Red Sox. He pitched like a dream and slammed home run after home run. But Babe Ruth was T-R-O-U-B-L-E. He stayed out late. He missed practice. He had a temper. So in 1919, the Red Sox sold him to one of baseball's worst teams, the New York Yankees. With Babe Ruth, the Yankees became legendary champions. And the Red Sox? They seemed cursed. Again and again, they made it to the World Series. Again and again, they lost. Then, in 2004, along came a scrappy, scruffy Red Sox team. Could they put Babe Ruth's curse to rest for good? With black-and-white illustrations by Tim Jessell throughout, Babe Ruth and the Baseball Curse captures all the excitement--and mystery--of the infamous curse on the Red Sox.
