As a player, coach, manager, and scout, Ripken spent 36 years in the Baltimore Orioles organization. Two sons, Cal Jr. and Billy, became major leaguers and the elder Ripken is the only man in baseball history to manage two sons at the same time.

Sports Biographies Alpha Index Index by Sport Index of Women Gehrig, "Lou" (Henry Louis) Baseball b. June 19, 1903, New York, NY d. June 2, 1941 Career Batting Record A high school star in baseball, basketball, football, and soccer, Gehrig played minor league baseball under an assumed name during the summer of 1921, before entering Columbia University. He played for the Columbia baseball team as a freshman, then was declared ineligible because his season as a professional was revealed. New York Yankee scout Paul Krichell, who saw him hit a tremendous home run out of Columbia Stadium and onto the steps of Butler Library, across the street, told the team he'd found another Babe Ruth. Gehrig signed with the Yankees in 1923 and spent most of his first two seasons in the minor leagues. In 1925, he was a backup until first baseman Wally Pipp took himself out of the lineup because of a headache. Gehrig took over and went on to establish a major league record of 2,130 consecutive games, winning the nickname the "Iron Horse." Quiet and unassuming, Gehrig was one of the great RBI men in major league history, but he played in Ruth's shadow for many years. He led the league in triples with 20 in 1926, in doubles with 52 and RBI with 175 in 1927, in doubles with 47, RBI with 142 and slugging percentage with .467 in 1928. The Yankees won the pennant and World Series each year. Gehrig was named the league's most valuable player in 1927, although that was the season Ruth hit 60 home runs.

Gehrig shared the spotlight with Babe Ruth and then Joe DiMaggio , unable to match their flare or popularity. Asked about toiling alongside Ruth, Gehrig responded with typical modesty, "It's a pretty big shadow. It gives me lots of room to spread myself." He set the record for the most consecutive games played, doing so while he was the best at his position year in and year out. He excelled in the post-season, winning six World Championships while batting cleanup. He holds the career record for most grand slams and he was the first player to have his uniform number retired.

I did not even know what position he played. But he played in the outfield against Rutgers and socked a couple of balls a mile. I sat up and took notice. I saw a tremendous youth, with powerful arms and terrific legs. I said, ...Here is a kid who can't miss." Yankee scout, Paul Krichell "There was absolutely no reason to dislike him, and nobody did." Fred Lieb, sportswriter "I had him for over eight years and he never gave me a moment's trouble. I guess you might say he was kind of my favorite." Yankee manager Joe McCarthy I would not have traded two minutes of the joy and the grief with that man for two decades of anything with another." His widow "Lou was the kind of boy that if you had a son, he's the kind of person you'd like your son to be." Teammate Sam Jones "Louie was always a good boy."
