Description

On September 6, 1995, Cal Ripken, Jr., baseball’s Ironman, played in his 2,131st consecutive game, breaking Lou Gehrig’s record that many thought would stand forever. The story of Cal’s life takes the reader from his early years in a baseball family through the minor leagues, two Most Valuable Player Awards, and his record-setting achievements as the Baltimore Oriole’s superstar shortstop.
