Description: Beautiful B&W photo of New York Yankees first baseman Wally Pipp. The man who Lou Gehrig replaced. Wally Pipp, a notable baseball player of the early 20th century, is best remembered for a seemingly innocuous event that led to a significant moment in sports history. Born on February 17, 1893, Pipp played first base for the New York Yankees from 1915 to 1925. However, on June 2, 1925, Pipp asked to sit out a game due to a headache, and his replacement, Lou Gehrig, took his place. Gehrig went on to start a record-breaking streak of consecutive games, becoming an iconic figure in baseball. Pipp's story serves as a reminder of the unforeseen opportunities and moments that can arise in sports.
