No Yankee Stadium moment was more tragic or more poignant than when Lou Gehrig said goodbye on July 4, 1939. The "Iron Horse" gave his speech between games of a doubleheader against the Senators. 洋基球場最感傷的時刻莫過於1939年7月4日Lou Gehrig宣布退休時。"鐵人"在與參議員隊的雙重賽比賽之間發表了演說。 Before a crowd of 61,808 a tearful Yankees New York Yankees manager Joe McCarthy spoke of Gehrig and Babe Ruth introduced him. The Yankees retired his No. 4, the first player in major league baseball history to be given that honor. 在61808名球迷面前，眼框中含著淚水的洋基總教練Joe McCarthy提到Lou Gehrig，並且由Babe Ruth介紹他出場。洋基隊將Lou Gehrig的四號球衣退休，這是大聯盟歷史上首位獲得此殊榮的球員。 Gehrig stepped to the microphone and delivered the most memorable speech in sports history: "For the past two weeks you have been reading about the bad break I got. Yet today I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth," Gehrig began. Lou Gehrig走向麥克風，並且發表了運動史上最令人難忘的演說:Lou Gehrig開頭說到，" 過去兩個星期，你們已經都知道我的不幸，然而今天我認為我自己是第表上最幸運的人。 " The crowd gave him a two-minute ovation. Gehrig would live two more years before dying of the disease that would forever bear his name. 爆滿的觀眾給予他兩分鐘的鼓掌。Gehrig在兩年之後死於以他名字命名的疾病。 Gehrig made his Yankee Stadium debut on June 15, 1923 against St. Louis.
