Lou Gehrig (New York Yankees White Pin-Stripe Uniform) Cooperstown (Series-6) 2009
***McFarlane MLB Sportspicks Cooperstown Collection 6***
Description:
*New York’s powerhouse first baseman dominated the American League for 14 full seasons, amassing the fifth-most RBI in history.
*The enduring legacy of the “Iron Horse” was his consecutive games played streak, which started on June 1, 1925, and lasted 2,130 games.
*Gehrig was a two-time MVP and won six World Series for New York, but is perhaps best-known for his farewell address at Yankee Stadium. *Just two months removed from his retirement from the game, Gehrig stepped to the microphone on July 4, 1939.
*Having been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (commonly referred to as “Lou Gehrig’s disease”) he addressed the crowd in a moving speech, referring to himself as “the luckiest man on the face of the earth.”
