TRIVIA ANSWER

C) Lou Gehrig

The first player in Major League Baseball history to have his number retired was New York Yankees legend, Lou Gehrig. His number 4 was retired on July 4, 1939, the same day as his famous “Luckiest Man on the Face of the Earth” speech at Yankee Stadium. Gehrig retired due to Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a disease that would later be commonly referred to as Lou Gehrig’s disease in his honor.
