The Babe

The other one, "Babe" Didrikson Zaharias, considered to be perhaps the greatest all-around female athlete of all time. Scroll down this page to see her swing. Wow.

Dad was telling me a little about her the other night at dinner. Rivaling the pompous nature of Muhammad Ali, a favorite quote is "The Babe is here. Who's coming in second?"
