As I recall The Babe and many of his contemporaries were hard drinking men.

Heard an interview a while back with a black player who played in the Negro League before being allowed to play in the MBL. He was an old man then and has since died, but he maintained that had steroids been readily available in his day, lots of players would have used them.

I heard that, ‘spirit. The Babe reputedly played often with a heavy hangover.
