Harry Frazee

So they think that this was the reason why the Red Sox went on this 86-year drought from 1918 to 2004 because they sold Babe Ruth to their arch rivals, the New York Spankies.

On December 26th, belated Merry Christmas 1990, Red Sox owner Harry Frazee sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees for $125,000 in cash and a $300,000 loan to help finance a Broadway play.

What? Before the sale, the Red Sox were a dominant franchise, winning five of the first 15 World Series titles in 1903, 1912, 1915, 1916, and 1918.

After the sale, they did not win another championship until 2004.

Heard in the cast were William Keene as the old man, Vicki Vola as the mother, and Danny Ocko as Vasca.

Dr. Sixgun, a radio production of the National Broadcasting Company, is directed by Harry Frazee.

THE END

Dr. Sixgun, starring Karl Weber as the frontier doctor with William Griffiths as Pablo, the wandering gypsy, has come to you through the worldwide facilities of the United States Armed Forces Radio and Television Service.

Yeah.

It should be the curse of Harry Frazee, because he sold off the whole team.

That wasn't just Babe.

He sold all the other guys,

...

Harry Frazee sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees-

Hmm

... to fund a Broadway play called No No Nanette.
