Whenever I think of Lou Gehrig, I think of power, consistency and most of all runs batted in. Lou was in business. His business was driving in runs. He had a thriving production company. He had seven years where his business surpassed 150 RBIs in that year.. And his RBIs per game is still the highest percentage in major league history at .921 runs driven in per game. From 1930 to 1934 he knocked in 813 runs. Averaging 162 rbis per season. More than one rbi per game. Whenever I look at Lou Gehrigs statistics I find something new about the man. Like the number of triples he hit.

Being a Yankee fan as I was growing up, anything connected with the Yanks caught my eye. When I saw \"Pride of The Yankees,\" with Gary Cooper and Teresa Wright I found another hero.Gary Coopers portrayal of Lou Gehrig was that of a strong, focused and quiet man. I related I was very quiet as a kid. His success made me feel good. I was so proud that I liked the Yankees because Lou Gehrig was a part of my team. You did not get any better than Lou.

Lou Gehrig has been an inspiration for me. I look at what he has accomplished in his baseball life. I am amazed. I have seen film of Lou batting without a shirt on. As his muscles rip as he swings the bat I am reminded of his awesome power and strength.

Albert Pujols
If you were asked who the best hitter in baseball is, what would you say? Generally speaking, the majority of people would answer Albert Pujols. For the last couple of seasons Pujols has been the best hitter in the game, and it does not appear that this is going to change anytime in the near future. The fact of the matter is that Pujols is one of the best hitters the game has ever seen, and he has proven this at the plate time and time again.When...

Some Greats of the Game with Hall of Fame Credentials
As I see it there is an on deck circle to the Hall of Fame. But, being in the on deck circle does not mean you will get in. Just like a baseball game, there is always someone who is the next batter that does not get to play. Same thing with the Hall of Fame.Some of these players will remain in the on deck circle to the Hall. Jim Rice, Dave Parker, Andre Dawson are three players that I think have had the careers deserving Hall of Fame recognition....
