Lou Gherig


It is either today or tomorrow when Lou Gherig replaced Wally Pipp and went on to play 2130 consecutive games. Lou actually played his Minor League baseball in Hartford, CT and I know in his barnstorming days played at Newfield Park in Bridgeport. I never got to shake hands with Gherig but I did with DiMaggio!

having ALS, I'm sure his hand was shaking without you.
