Cal Ripken Jr., the classy shortstop of the Baltimore Orioles has run his consecutive game streak to 1,735, the closest any major leaguer has come to the 2,130-game record of Gehrig in his 1925-'39 span. "Our selection panel was unanimous in recogruzing Ripken's great off-field community involvement as weU as his consistently fine on-field play," said Robert A. Biggs, executive vice president of the Fratemity. Ripken's reaction to the award offers a clue as to how he wiU deal with the media and public pressure as he gets closer to the day in the 1995 season when he can top the once considered unassaUable record. 'Tm honored that the Fratemity voted me this award," he said. "But my emphasis has never been on Lou Gehrig's record. In fact, I deUberately try to keep Gehrig and the record out of my thinking. 'Tlaying every day has always been a matter of personal pride," he continued. 'T startedmy career with the thought of being involved in the game every day to help the Orioles win. I appreciate the recognition I have gotten for my trying to be a good citizen." Ripken is weU aware that the media is paying attention to his durabUity and his pace against Gehrig. "Since Tve gone past the 1,000 mark in consecutive games, people have been talking about the Gehrig record," he said. "When people want to talk to me about it, my response is the same. I'm not thinking about Lou Gehrig. Fans send me magazine articles and old cUppings of Gehrig, but 1 file it aU away. "If the day comes when I set the record, then I'U want to know more about Lou Gehrig. If it comes to pass, it wiU be source of pride and satisfaction. 90 TheScroU * Spring 1993
Knowing what luck is involved in avoiding injuries, it's still a long way off." Aside from the possibility of the Gehrig record, Ripken's considerable offensive and defensive skills have him on course for a Hall of Fame career. His batting average (.277), career home rims (273) and RBls (1,014) are weU above average for a shortstop. As a defensive standout, he has won two Golden Gloves. He has been selected to the American League All Star team every year in the past 10 years. But it is his off-season schedule that has earned him humanitarian and civic awards. His interest in service was awakened at an early age. "When 1 came up to the Orioles, I observed what Eddie Murray, Ken Singleton and Al Bubry, among others, were doing in the way of getting involved in things," he said. "They were making appearances and going out in public. I realized early on that baU players are role models whether we want to be or not. "I think my first year I got involved in making tickets avaUable to inner-city kids, and I'm still involved with that through the Because We Care program. Eddie has stayed with it even though he's left the Orioles." The pride and joy of Cal and wife Kelly is the Cal Ripken Jr. Learning Center, a project they launched in 1989 with a $250,000 contribution. It's an adult literacy program operated by the city of Baltimore. He is also involved in Mayor Kurt Schmokes' The City That Reads campaign. At the end of the 1991 season, Cal and Kelly put on a baseball memorabilia show that raised another $200,000 for the Learning Center. Cal's brother, BUly, who plays second base alongside him, and their father, Cal Ripken Sr., the Baltimore third base coach, got involved as weU. Kirby Puckett of the Twins, and Eddie Murray, Glenn Davis, and Gregg Olson of the Orioles made guest appearances. His interest in children is reflected in his being associated with the University of Maryland Hospital's Schock Trauma Center, the Johns Hopkins' Childrens Center and the Hartford Center, a day care center for retarded citizens. In prior years he has been honorary chairman of the March of Dimes, Christmas Seals and American Lung Association's anti-smoking drive. "There comes a time when you have to step back and say you can't respond to every request," he says. "It's a sign of maturity to concentrate on where you think you can do the most good. That's why our efforts in hteracy give us the great satisfaction they do." Cal is wary of taUcing about the future, because it frequently brings him back to conversation about his chance of erasing Gehrig's record. "1 have a very carefully supervised off-season conditioning program," he explained. "As you get older, you have to work harder. There's no such thing as letting yourself get out of shape. "I've been very fortunate to avoid injuries. That's my goal—staying healthy. I'd like to get back into a World Series again. We were in one in 1983, and that was a long time ago. I'll have more of an appreciation when we do it again." He was presented the Roberto Clemente humanitarian award during the AU Star Game activities last season. The presentation of the Gehrig Award wUl be early in the 1993 season in the new stadium. Oriole Park at Camden Yard, g Cal Ripken Jr. has played in 1,735 consecutive games, the closest anyone has come to Lou Gehrig's 2,130 game record.
