Why don't we have Babe Ruth Day in baseball ? Tired of everyone else's day

Babe Ruth should have his own day where everyone has to wear his number.We seem to honor everyone anyway.In all due respect to Hank Aaron,Willie Mays, even Barry Bonds.There numbers came with more at bats.Ruth is more than a legend he simply was the best offensively in the history of the game.Do you think in God"s green earth that Bond"s,Aaron or May"s would even recognize Ruth or even utter his name on his day.Not a chance.We still use the racial card way too much in sport right across the board.Ted William"s was the greatest hitter of all time.I have no question about this .I want a day set aside for him and Ruth.Maybe Oprah Winfrey,Denzel Washington and  Whoopi Goldberg will read stories during there days and celebrate them .NOT!!!!!!!!.Equality would be good concerning these two hitters.

I agree there should be a Babe Ruth Day, but for completely opposite reasons listed here. I think baseball should celebrate everyday something on which something hugely historic happened. Ruth's 60th HR day should be Babe Ruth Day. Just like a day celebrating the first cycle, or perfect games, or maybe just odd occurances in baseball lore. It would keep people remembering the past, and generate some excitement about the present. How about a league-wide bobble head day, each team giving away a bobblehead of the more popular characters in franchise history?
