Jimmy, that's a great 1938 Gehrig photo! Makes me a bit sad though. He had just come off another great year and had no way of knowing that within a year he'd be diagnosed with ALS and pass away within 3 years. Even as his body was failing him, he still managed to hit .295 and knock in 114 runs in 1938. The man truly was the Iron Horse.
