1. Take the number of the street address where Babe Ruth was born.

2. Add it to the number of the street address where he died.

3. Whose total number of Home Runs does it add up to?

No. It's a career mark. Three digits.

Good guess. I wish it were true, but that's not it.

Not 536, though I like that guess as well.

Here's some help. Babe x Lou x Joe x (Babe + Yogi)

The Babe was born on 2/6/1895 at 216 Emory St. in Baltimore.

When he died on 8/16/1948 he had been living at 444 East 68th St. in NYC.

Total 660 = Say Hey

Or 3 x 4 x 5 x (3 + 8) = 660

YL, you have to be careful, though, coz Joe wore #9 in 1936. That would make it = 1188.

Right gyb. And Yogi wore 35 & 38 early in his career. And Lou might have been Lou Piniella, etc.

But I had confidence that you guys would get it right.
