Photo-Caption:A plaque commemorating the day Babe Ruth played in Sleepy Eye during his prime on a 1922 barnstorming tour was installed last week on the grandstand at Sleepy Eye Ballpark. Community donations for the 100th Babe Ruth Anniversary celebration paid for the marker. In the background, Sleepy Eye Legion ballplayers practice on the same field where The Bambino smashed two home runs against a team of regional amateur all-stars.
