June 2nd is Lou Gehrig Day! ⚾️

June 2 is recognized as "Lou Gehrig Day" in Major League Baseball. This special day was dedicated to Lou Gehrig to bring awareness to the disease that the great New York Yankees star battled, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or ALS.

On this day the game of baseball invites the entire world to remember the legacy of Lou Gehrig and to recognize and honor those living with and battling ALS. 💙

Together, help us strike out ALS.
