What's the matter, Wally? You getting weak? Hit it.

A girl's got to breathe.

Thank you, Mr. Gehrig.

- Here you are. - Thank you, bye. Bye, Blake.

Everything's going so fine now.

Hello, Mrs. Gehrig.

Gehrig stands at the microphones, visibly impressed, all choked up.

Ruth will show you some facts in his column tomorrow.

You'll never be sorry you signed him.

The pitcher has been missing the corners since the sixth inning.

You got to go back. You can't walk in on him like this.

You know there isn't anything you can't do, if you try hard enough.

- A policeman? - And a fellow called Lou Gehrig.

You've never been to a ball game.

I can't understand it. So many people with nothing to do.

Go on, try it. There, now watch him. Here he goes.

and I've never received anything but...

a companion for fife...

Yes. He's talked an awful lot about your father.

Take it easy, Lou.

- What's your batting average now? - I'll swap it for your math grade.

A rookie. Come on, let's play ball!

He knew a ballplayer when he saw one.

Batting average, home runs...

You'd better get that apron off, and get your nose powdered.

Just in case you're interested...

I don't believe it. I can't believe it.

the luckiest man on the face of the earth.

- What is it, Papa? - This fool. This dope.

There's a pretty stiff wind blowing in this direction.

Know what? We're gonna knock ‘em dead when we come back.

Gehrig seems to be overanxious. He's reaching for some bad ones.

♪ I'll be loving you ♪

Maybe he signed with the wrong team.

Well, I don't know.

The last straw? That's a good gag, Babe. Get the point?

I went because we needed the money.

The party is over. We've got to get this house ready for living.

Mr. Gehrig, will you put your name on it, too?

What did you say the name of this genius was?

That's nothing. Four times in 10 weeks. That's perfectly understandable.

I've just been informed that Lou Gehrig has promised to hit two home runs for him.

Yep. I'm sitting in the lobby of the Statler Hotel.

It's a home run for Lou Gehrig. A home run for Gehrig.

- They'll give him an automobile at least. - I say a yacht.

Look at him, eating flapjacks on the most important day of his life.

Go ahead, take a bite. If you're one of us, you'll take a bite.

but Gehrig has promised two home runs for that kid. Can he do it?

You'll tell me later.

- You sure we came to the right ballpark? - Yes.

- Yo u s u re? - Yes.

This fraternity has standards. You can't ignore his family.

and I've learned one thing.

Wouldn't you condescend to dance with a little Miss Nobody like me?

I hope you have good luck today, too.

Miss Tinsley, may I present Mr. Gehrig?

and what's more, you can pick your own field...

Would you go away? Would you please go away?

In a place like this, they give you the x-ray...

It's Lou Gehrig.

I have been given...

After all my plans for you to follow after your Uncle Otto.

I'll tell you. I got a hunch I'm gonna be playing for along while.

I just had a nice talk with your mother-in-law.

- Maybe I'd better pack it just like it is. - No, I'll open it.

Lay off of this kid, will you?

You've made a mistake. It's the wrong pattern.

Everyone is here to show him just what they feel in their hearts.

You must have a girl in every city.

- Will you come in and wait in the parlor? - Yeah. Go on in.

Sure. I remember you.

- You busted my last one. - Me? No.

"Not for just an hour"

But it seems such a waste of time. I want to talk to you.

If we're even, maybe you'll sit down with us.

- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry, too.

Just like the kind Mom used to try to make.

I've only made a superficial examination of the tests.

How would you like to get this right in the....

our championship team of 1927.

She's gonna have the best, a good room in a private hospital.

Postmaster General of the United States, Jim Farley.

I'm gonna be an engineer.

You can live with it for a while, and if you don't like it...

- Did you see him swing like an old lady? - It's criminal.

Hands Lou Gehrig a plaque. On that plaque are two words. “Don't quit.“

♪ Not for just a day ♪

- Where are you going? - I'm going to get him.

What are you doing, Lou? Knocking the rice off of your spikes?

I gave you the instructions.

I must have waited too long, because I'm not hungry now.

the cardiograph, the metabolism, the fluoroscope, the works.

But how many Lou Gehrigs are there?

He lives for his job, he gets a lot of fun out it.

But one thing I don't understand.

He busted Colletti's window.

♪ When the things you've planned ♪

I haven't missed a game since I joined, and I'm not going to now.
