There should be three numbers retired throughout #baseball, and they welcome you at the entrance to the #HoF - Jackie, Roberto, and Gehrig. Jackie for the color barrier; Clemente for pioneering baseball to Latin America, and Gehrig for courage. All of them stood for more than their teams or the game. #MLB #LouGehrigDay #Jackie42 #TheGreatOne https://www.instagram.com/p/CPo-NVggSEf1sjsAfZDZfb_Pup9rrjJEL2aB780/?utm_medium=tumblr

Every 90 minutes someone is diagnosed with ALS and every 90 minutes we lose another far too early to this disease. Remember the ice bucket challenge? We need to continue to raise awareness about this disease and encourage further research to find a cure. #lougehrig #lougehrigsdisease #lougehrigday #vancouverwashington #washougal #camaswashington #vanwa (at Vancouver, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPoZK1MJkRw/?utm_medium=tumblr
