Randy Krzmarzick, organizer of the recent 90th anniversary celebration of the day Babe Ruth visited Sleepy Eye (http://sleepyeyeonline.com/corral/) received an interesting phone call. Brent Stevens, the great grandson of Ruth, gave Randy a call after he heard about the local event. Stevens went on to write a blog on his website www.baberuthcentral.com about Ruth’s visit to Slepey Eye.
Randy’s conversation with Ruth also included talk of Brent visiting the community for the 100th Anniversary celebration.
The Homerun story at the end of the blog has a different twist to it on the local front. Randy remembers talking with Bud Kolbe and his version had Ruth hitting the long ball.
