Lou Gehrig played with broken bones while players like Giancarlo Stanton can't run the bases without straining a muscle.

Perhaps the most striking indication of Gehrig’s legendary endurance was this: X-rays taken of his hands at the end of his career revealed he had broken every finger of both hands (some of them twice) along with 17 healed fractures. And he never. Missed. A. Game.
