Very Ruthian, isn't it? Ruth still even holds a few pitching records.
While no reason is given, I feel free to speculate that he might have decided to focus on hitting because it would mean playing every day and thus make it easier to pile up those records he was so determined to set.
As for the bat, maybe because he could and because he found the wood? In any case, he'd still have had to hit.
