It is sad to see Lou dropped into 2nd on grandslams. The casual baseball fan may think A-rod is greater. But those that follow history knows the real deal.

162 game avg. according to baseball reference (I'm assuming it's prorated as they played fewer games back in Lou's era). But Gehrig dominates in every category except slightly fewer hr's.

A-roid:

162 Game Avg. 619(AB)121(R)186(Hits)41(HR)124(RBI).300(avg).559( slug)


Gehrig:

162 Game Avg. 599(AB)141(R)204(Hits)37(HR)149(RBI).340(avg).632( slug)

You would have to be a VERY casual fan to think ARod was greater.

The only thing A-Rod is better than Lou Gehrig at is cheating.

F*** A-Roid, Bonds and the rest of the Needle Mafia. I'd rather focus on the better men of the game:
