Although Gehrig's performance in the second half of the 1938 season was slightly better than in the first half, Gehrig reported physical changes at the midway point. At the end of that season, he said, "I was tired mid-season. I don't know why, but I just couldn't get going again." Although his final 1938 statistics were above average (.295 batting average, 114 RBIs, 170 hits, .523 slugging percentage, 689 plate appearances with only 75 strikeouts, and 29 home runs), boosted by a hot August, they were significantly down from his 1937 season, in which he batted .351 and slugged .643. He hit his last home run on September 27, 1938.<a href="#cite_note-54">[54]</a> In the 1938 World Series, he had four hits in 14 at-bats (.286 batting average), all singles.<a href="#cite_note-Malik2000-55">[55]</a> When the Yankees began their 1939 <a href="/wiki/Spring_training" title="Spring training">spring training</a> in <a href="/wiki/St._Petersburg,_Florida" title="St. Petersburg, Florida">St. Petersburg, Florida</a>, Gehrig clearly no longer possessed his once-formidable power.

Fans and the press openly speculated on his abrupt decline.

Physically wrong, I mean. I don't know what it is, but I am satisfied that it goes far beyond his ball-playing. I have seen ballplayers 'go' overnight, as Gehrig seems to have done. But they were simply washed up as ballplayers. It's something deeper than that in this case, though. I have watched him very closely and this is what I have seen: I have seen him time a ball perfectly, swing on it as hard as he can, meet it squarely – and drive a soft, looping fly over the infield. In other words, for some reason that I do not know, his old power isn't there ... He is meeting the ball, time after time, and it isn't going anywhere.<a href="#cite_note-quotes-59">[59]</a></blockquote> He was indeed meeting the ball, with only one strikeout in 28 at-bats. However, with Gehrig hitless in five of the eight games, Joe McCarthy found himself resisting pressure from Yankee management to switch his slumping player to a part-time role. Things came to a head when Gehrig struggled to make a routine put-out at first base. The <a href="/wiki/Pitcher" title="Pitcher">pitcher</a>, <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Murphy" title="Johnny Murphy">Johnny Murphy</a>, had to wait for him to drag himself over to the bag so he could field the throw.

"That was the simplest play you could ever make in baseball, and I knew then: There was something wrong with me".<a href="#cite_note-60">[60]</a> On April 30, Gehrig went hitless against the <a href="/wiki/1939_Washington_Senators_season" title="1939 Washington Senators season">Washington Senators</a>.

Gehrig, as Yankee captain, himself took the lineup card out to the shocked umpires before the game, ending the 14-year streak. Before the game began, the <a href="/wiki/Tiger_Stadium_(Detroit)" title="Tiger Stadium (Detroit)">Briggs Stadium</a> announcer told the fans, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first time Lou Gehrig's name will not appear on the Yankee lineup in 2,130 consecutive games." The Detroit Tigers' fans gave Gehrig a standing ovation while he sat on the bench with tears in his eyes.<a href="#cite_note-Malik2000-55">[55]</a> Coincidentally, among those attending the game was <a href="/wiki/Wally_Pipp" title="Wally Pipp">Wally Pipp</a>, whom Gehrig had replaced at first base 2,130 games previously.

Eleanor Gehrig was told that the cause of ALS was unknown, but that it was painless, not contagious, and cruel; the motor function of the central nervous system is destroyed, but the mind remains fully aware until the end.<a href="#cite_note-64">[64]</a><a href="#cite_note-Cardoso2002-65">[65]</a> Gehrig often wrote letters to Eleanor, and one such note written shortly after the diagnosis said in part: <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">The bad news is lateral sclerosis, in our language "creeping" paralysis.

It was based on the 1976 autobiography My Luke and I, written by Eleanor Gehrig and Joseph Durso. In an episode of the <a href="/wiki/PBS" title="PBS">PBS</a> series Jean Shepherd's America, the Chicago-born <a href="/wiki/Jean_Shepherd" title="Jean Shepherd">Jean Shepherd</a> told of how his father (Jean Shepherd, Sr.) and he would watch <a href="/wiki/Chicago_White_Sox" title="Chicago White Sox">Chicago White Sox</a> games from the right-field upper deck at <a href="/wiki/Comiskey_Park" title="Comiskey Park">Comiskey Park</a> in the 1930s. On one occasion, the Sox were playing the Yankees, and Shepherd Sr. had been taunting Gehrig, yelling at him all day. In the top of the ninth, with Sox icon <a href="/wiki/Ted_Lyons" title="Ted Lyons">Ted Lyons</a> holding a slim lead, Gehrig came to bat with a man on base, and the senior Shepherd yelled in a voice that echoed around the ballpark, "Hit one up here, ya bum! I dare ya!" Gehrig did exactly that, hitting a screaming liner, practically into the heckler's lap, for the eventual game-winning home run. Shepherd's father was booed mercilessly, and he never again took junior Jean to a game.
