Yes, it's true that Babe Ruth had a pinch runner during his time with the Boston Braves. In the movie "The Babe," this aspect of his career is dramatized, highlighting how his speed had diminished in his later years. Ruth would occasionally require a runner to replace him after hitting home runs, as he was no longer able to run the bases effectively. This practice was more about managing his declining physical condition rather than a routine occurrence for most players.
