What a terrific display those two Ruth pieces will make, Mike!
Here's a vintage original photo of the Iron Man as he gets ready to play in his 2,000 consecutive game. Gehrig2000Games.jpg |

Here is an off topic question regarding the Gehrig pictures and Lou Gehrig day.
I have noticed that all of the ball players in the pictures are wearing undershirt sleeves. Looking through archived information, all information points to the fact that July 4, 1939 was a hot muggy day with temps around 85 degrees. Why were all the players wearing sleeves under their wool uniforms? The only logical thought I have on this is that the undershirts soaked up the sweat so the uniforms would not be so heavy when the sweat was absorbed. Other than this, I cannot think of any reason why they would wear long sleeves on a hot, muggy July day. Any thoughts? |
