Great post, love that poem about one of my all-time favorites. Really wish so-called ballplayers of today would learn a thing or two about this great man
what it means to be a professional and a team player. One thing about Lou. How many people know that he hit his first and his 493 rd career home run on the same day? Sept 1, 1923 off Bill Piercy at Fenway, and fifteen years later, off Dutch Leonard at Washington.

Also, he died exactly 16 years to the day after beginning his streak.
