    Keith, I have been keeping up with the Babe since I was a kid. This is a great question sir. Babe hit his first professional homerun in Fayetteville, North Carolina in spring training with the Orioles in 1914. He hit his first homerun in a real game at Hanlan's Point Stadium in Toronto, Canada of that same year. He hit his first homerun of his major league career against Jack Warhop in the Polo Grounds in 1915.

    Hanlan's Point Stadium in Toronto. September 15, 1914. When he was 19 and on the AAA Providence Grays. He was the winning pitcher, and pitched a shut out. Now there is no stadium, the place is called Hanlan' Point.
