The Iron Horse, in Uniform One Last Time!

Step into baseball history with an Original Ticket to Game 4 of the 1939 World Series between the New York Yankees and the Cincinnati Reds, played on October 9th at Cincinnati’s Crosley Field. In a hard fought 7–4 victory over the Cincinnati, the Yankees completed a commanding sweep to secure their 8th World Series Title in franchise history, further cementing their dominance during one of the franchise’s most legendary eras.

Beyond the Yankees' championship glory and American League MVP Joe DiMaggio’s game-winning performance, this ticket holds profound historical significance in Yankee lore as the final time Lou Gehrig was seen in uniform!

Though Gehrig had retired from playing earlier that season after being diagnosed with ALS, he remained with the team as captain, supporting them throughout their World Series run. On this unforgettable day, as the Yankees clinched yet another title, Gehrig sat quietly in the dugout - wearing his iconic #4 jersey one last time. This game became a poignant final chapter for The Iron Horse, one of baseball’s most revered figures.
