Adventures of Babe Ruth: Feud with Tim Daly, Umpire

In this episode of The Adventures of Babe Ruth, the Bambino faces one of his toughest opponents — not a pitcher, but an umpire. When a long-simmering feud between Babe Ruth and umpire Tim Daly boils over during a crucial late-season game, tempers flare, fans riot, and the “Sultan of Swat” finds himself caught between pride and responsibility. What follows is a tale of sportsmanship, humility, and redemption — told with the flair and energy that made this U.S. Navy–produced series a hit among young listeners.

Though inspired by real headlines, Feud with Tim Daly is pure radio fiction — a dramatized look at the legend of Ruth as a moral hero and ambassador for the game. The episode captures the spirit of baseball’s golden age, where the crack of the bat echoed alongside lessons in fairness and self-control.
