Babe Ruth's daughter threw out the first pitch before the Red Sox game on Saturday.
Next weekend, Julia Ruth Stevens will turn 100 years old.
Stevens says it's great that people still celebrate her father's place in baseball history.
She still lives in New England and is a resident of Conway, New Hampshire.
