Lou Gehrig teamed with Babe Ruth to form baseball's most devastating hitting tandem ever. "The Iron Horse" had 13 consecutive seasons with both 100 runs scored and 100 RBI, setting an American League mark with 184 RBI in 1931. Gehrig hit a record 23 grand slams and won the 1934 Triple Crown behind a .363 average with 49 home runs and 165 RBI. His .361 batting average in seven World Series led the Yankees to six titles in 13 years. A true gentleman and a tragic figure, Gehrig's consecutive game streak ended at 2,130 when he was felled by a disease that later carried his name. Offered here is a pair of hobby fresh Lou Gehrig New York Yankees road flannel pants. Spalding label inside the back of the waistband. Player name (Gehrig L.) beautifully stitched in red cursive, adjacent to the Spalding label. Another name is also handwritten on the waistband, which could indicate that the pants were recycled. Multiple repairs, including a large strip from the right knee to ankle. These pants are properly tagged, presented to us as game-used and in our opinion show excellent wear. Accompanied by a letter from our consignor, whose mother worked for the Yankees and obtained these pants from them.
