In 1954, in 7 relief appearances, he retired 27 men in a row. Don is unscored upon in All-Star and World Series competition.
No. 5, Covering The Bag: When a baserunner is attempting to steal second, Gehringer races over and straddles the base, standing with his feet pressed against the sides of the bag (see drawing). Thus he keeps his feet and ankles protected from the sharp spikes as the runner comes sliding in. After Gehringer takes the throw from his catcher, he holds the ball a foot or so in front of the base and allows the runner to slide into the ball, touching him on the ankle. Never attempt to touch a sliding runner on the upper part of his body.
When "Jerry" took part in 150 Double Plays in 1950, he set a new Major League Record for 2nd Basemen. Outside of 2 years in Service, he's been in the Big Leagues since '41, playing with the Yankees, Senators, Browns and Tigers. A top-notch fielder, he led American League 2nd basemen in Putouts in 1947-48-49-51 and in Assists in 1948-50-51. He had his best seasons at the plate in '48 and '49, hitting .296 and .290.
