Or do you liken somebody else to Superman. You might consider personality too. Superman stood for truth, justice, and the American way.Is Lou Gehrig the closest thing to Superman in baseball?Have you forgotten about Cal Ripken Jr? He also does a lot of charity work and things for the community as well. He has set up the Cal Ripken baseball camps for kids as well.
I don't need to mention his playing days do I? 2,632 consecutive games to break Lou Gehrig's record, 3,184 hits, 431 home runs, 1,695 RBIs...19 time all-star and 1 World Series ring
I'd say Ripken is pretty close...as far as someone who is actively playing...Pujols or Jeter come to mind.Is Lou Gehrig the closest thing to Superman in baseball?
How did he die? ... Lou Gehrig's disease? ... you'd think he would have seen that coming.
Consecutive games played? ... so he went to work every day at his 6 month a yr. occupation ... big deal.
Lou was a role model and one of the greatest hitters in history.Is Lou Gehrig the closest thing to Superman in baseball?Gehrig may be Superman, but Albert Pujols is God!!
Stan Musial too. Huge stats, played hard, never took a day off and was a genuinely nice guy.Is Lou Gehrig the closest thing to Superman in baseball?
lou gehrig's fate was sealed as soon as his parents named him after that awful disease. one doesn't name a boat titanic II, either.Is Lou Gehrig the closest thing to Superman in baseball?my vote goes to the "Say Hey Kid" Willie Mays - the man could do it all
