"Asparagus," he explained to his hostess in his politest tones, "makes my urine smell." Asparagus, though, was about the only thing that Ruth would not eat. He used to munch hot dogs during practice sessions with the Yankees, once put away an omelet made of 18 eggs and three big slices of ham. He was equally...
