Ruth hit 60 home runs that year. Gehrig hit 47 and won the American League's Most Valuable Player Award. Nobody was surprised when the Yankees won the World Series. Gehrig, however, almost did not play. His mother had to have an operation. He felt he should be with her. Missus Gehrig and the Yankees' manager urged him to play in the World Series. His mother recovered. More major threats to Gehrig's record of continuous games played took place in 1929. His back, legs and hands were injured. He was hit on the head by a throw one day as he tried to reach home plate. Another Yankee player said, "Every time he played, it hurt him."
