(00:00):
We get ready to wrap it uphere for the day and for the week.
So sitting there throwing out those numberswhich are trivial in their nature,
as you know, and someone onthe text line said, fellow trivia above
here, anyone worth his salt knowsthat Wally Pip was replaced by Luke Garrick,
who replaced lu Garrick in the lineup. That is a very good question.

(00:28):
He's referring to Wally Pip. Ofcourse. In nineteen twenty five,
we had a headache and asked theskipper, Miller Huggins, hey, can
you put in the kid and lethim do it? The kid was lu
Garrick, and he stayed in thelineup for the next two thy one hundred
and thirty consecutive games. Garreg endedup taking himself out of the lineup.
I believe it was early May,maybe the second or third, something like

(00:51):
that. Early May of nineteen thirtynine. He took himself out of line
because he knew he wasn't right,something wasn't right, and he was really
struggling and think he was bad aboutone seventy or something like that, and
didn't know what the problem was,and said, can you you know,
I can't do it, skip goahead and took the lineup card out the
home plate. The city had tearsin his eyes, and that was the

(01:12):
last time Luke Gregg plate. Ofcourse, he you know, went to
the Mayo Clinic found out he hadamyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which we now know
is Luke Eeregg's disease, and theworld lost him two years later. The
man who replaced him in the lineup, if I remember correctly, the man
who replaced him in the lineup wasa guy named a Babe, not Ruth

(01:33):
Big Dahlgren. I believe it's theguy who took his place. And Dahgren
had himself a pretty decent career forYankees, and I think he played for
the Dodgers a couple other teams.But I believe Babe Dahlgren was the guy
who replaced Luke Gegg in the lineupin May of nineteen thirty nine. Okay,
so we're headed here toward the endof the week. We'll see how
