"These conditions, according to report received by Mr. Johnson, have affect- ‘ed the mental attitude of Babe and placed him in such a condition that he might do and say things in the heat of the game which he would deep- ly regret a few minutes later, and ‘which he would not do under normal circumstances. It was pointed out that Ruth's pro- vious suspension was the longest ever given a player and that in the slug ger’s nine years in the major leagues Mr. Johnson has had occasion to pun- lash him only once. Ruth then wrote a letter apologizing for his act. Mr. Johnson today wred Umpires Evans and Nallin for their versions o! yesterday's affair. Umpire Hildebrand, in his report to Mr, Johnson, said the decision at sec: ond was “not even close” and that ‘Ruth threw dirt at him, the dirt strik- ‘ing his shoulder. He made no men- ion of any dirt getting into his eyes. | Hildebrand’s report follows. “In the third inning of today’s game at New York, Ruth singled to centerfield and tried to stretch the hit into a double and was thrown out at second base. : “After I called him out he protested the decision arc. picking up a hand- ful of earth, threw it at me. It struck and scattered over my shoulder. I then ordered him out of the game. “He then went to the New York Dench amid jeers of the crowd. In response he doffed his cap and step- ‘ped in front of a bench and engaged in conversation with some of the ‘spectators. “Some one evidently yelled some- thing at Ruth that displeased him be- ‘cause he climbed over the players’ ‘bench and boxes to where the fan was sitting. The fan he was after, made hasty exit and Ruth returned to tt Dench. ‘He went to the club houf: immediately. I was absolutely cor- ‘rect. ‘The decision was not even close.
