TIL: On June 8, 1921, Babe Ruth was jailed until 4 p.m. for speeding – an hour after the Yankees game began. He had his jersey delivered to the jail, changed in his cell, then was police escorted to the game. He pinch-hit walked in a 4-3 win over Cleveland and became the Homerun champ 2 days later.
