Babe Ruth HOF plaque leaving Cooperstown



Whether or not you think the process behind the Baseball Hall of Fame voting is a controversial or not, one thing that most people agree on is that there is something magical about Cooperstown and all that it represents.  That is why it is worth celebrating when a major piece of its facility is now going on tour.

The Hall of Fame plaque of Babe Ruth, who may still be the most iconic Baseball Player of all time, will be on display when the New York Yankees host their cross-town rival, the Mets this Tuesday.  Afterwards, the plaque will be showcased at Grand Central Terminal on Wednesday.

This tour is not just a celebration of the career of Babe Ruth and the Baseball Hall of Fame, but is an initiative of the New York Tourism Board.  The Baseball Hall will be ushering in a 100th Anniversary exhibit of Ruth’s debut in the game.  Incidentally, this marks the first time that a plaque from the Baseball Hall of Fame has ever left the facility.
