Lou Gehrig got a shot when Wally Pipp couldn't play because of a headache. We all know what happened next. The Iron Horse was born.
Today is the 75th anniversary since Lou Gehrig's speech. It's moving and MLB did a real nice thing having players recite Lou's famous speech. Simply chilling.
Gehrig got a bad break. But throughout his life, he worked hard to be the best he could be. Just thinking about it and the time that's past is incredible to me. Finally... something truly sacred in baseball.
His words alone could bring you to tears... it's a life lesson... write that down.
