Default Gehrig - 1939 playball
Posted By: Frank Wakefield

Lou's last game was April 30th, 1939.

The May 2nd date is the day he walks the lineup card out and he's not on it.

And I think Chris' perception that the 1939 Playballs came a bit late, after the season starts, makes sense. I think that's why Lou's not in there. Still, gotta wonder about card 126.
