Suffolk Sports Hall of Fame honors site of game featuring Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig

Some of baseball's biggest names. Yeah. Now 93 years later, Lindenhurst is remembering what happened in a special way. News. Twelve's Kevin Maher has the story. The corner of Montauk Highway and Second Street in Lindenhurst is home to a horizon building. But 93 years ago, it was the site of a baseball game featuring Yankees legends, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. 4000 people showed up for this game and back then 4000 people was a lot of people for Lindenhurst. Today. The Suffolk County Sports Hall of Fame dedicated a plaque Commemorating that game that not many people even know about. There's cars driving by all day long. They had no idea that Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig were here. And now they do. The game featured Ruth Gehrig and some other pros taking on a team of Lindenhurst. All stars. Alex Yeager was Lindy's starting pitcher. That's him in the dark jacket and on the T shirts worn by people at event, including his niece, Anna, who is now the village historian, the articles that we've been reading, he did a great job. The score was tied when he left the game. So the winning run did not come off of my uncle Ruth and Gehrig's team won the game 10 to 4. Safe to say 93 years later, they've been forgiven. It's just another example of the great things that have happened on Long Island, particularly here in Lindenhurst. Ruth and Gehrig did not disappoint in the game. They combined for six hits and the Village is going to reenact the game on November 4th. So whoever plays the Yankee legends have big shoes to fill in Lindenhurst, Kevin Maher News 12 Long Island. That is so cool. Now, this is the fourth historical plaque the Hall of Fame has installed in the county.
