#LouGehrigDay honors the Yankees’ legendary Iron Horse and increases awareness of the ALS disease, which took the life of Lou Gehrig and continues to take the lives of too many people each year.
No. 4 was a picture of strength throughout his extraordinary career.
Per Jack Curry (YES Network) the Yankees are moving Carlos Lagrange into the Triple-A bullpen.
He’s striking out 29% of batters faced in Scranton while averaging 98.6 MPH on his fastball as a starter.
OTD in 2021, All @MLB teams celebrated the 1st Lou Gehrig Day, Honoring New York @Yankees Legend on the Anniversary of his 1925 streak and 1941 ALS death.

RUMORS:
The Yankees could target both Ryan Jeffers and Adley Rutschman at the trade deadline to upgrade at catcher this summer, according to Joel Sherman.
Sherman noted that Jeffers would be a perfect fit, and that while a Rutschman trade is possible, it would be expensive.
Yankees are the first team in American League history to score 13+ runs in a game, all in one inning
It has happened twice in the National League:
1972 Braves
2003 Phillies
Twenty years ago today, Mike Mussina let Joe Torre know he was going to finish what he started 🤣
Mussina then got the final out to close out the last complete game of his Hall of Fame career.
