American League players took part
in every game contested by their
clubs during the 1887 season. Lou
Gehrig, of course. tops the list
with 157 games, running his total
of successive games to 965 The
others were Roy Bell of the Browns
with 1856, Luke Appling and Fred
Walker of the White Sox with 154,
Earl Averill and Lyn Larry of the
Indians were repeaters, each having
played every game in 1896.
That Fred Walker was able to
play every game was big surprise
as many thought, a year ago, that
his playing days were over because
of an injury to his collar bone and
shoulder. He had himself fixed up
with an operation, however, and
demonstrated himself to be an iron
man. Then, too, there is Wally
Moses. Wally met with a serious
accident late in 1885 yet missed only
few games in '36 and none at all
in 1887.
