Murder by Numbers – Lou Gehrig
In light of Stephen Hawking dying yesterday from a(n incredibly long) battle with Lou Gehrig’s disease, let’s look at the numerology of the death of the man the disease is named after, Lou Gehrig himself.
This ritual is centered largely around the number 39
By far, the most famous piece of footage of Lou Gehrig comes from his retirement speech, which occurred in ’39.
He retired with 493 career home runs
He was born at 309 East 94th St
Even the numbers they give us in his weight are interesting. “Kill” = 14 (Jewish Reduction), “Kill” = 64 (Reverse Ordinal)
He was born in 1903
193 is the 44th prime number
154 is another number commonly seen in these types of rituals. It’s 22 × 7, whereas 22 ÷ 7 = 3.14
His nickname was:
Gehrig got this nickname because of a Major League record he held for over 56 years. It was for most consecutive games played – 2,130
This likely has something to do with the fact that death was coded into his name.
His streak ended when he pulled himself out of a game for poor performance, and he never played in another Major League game again. He retired with a .340 career average.
His Slugging % was .632
The final game he played in was on April 30th, 1939, written 4/30
This date fell 319 days after the 15th anniversary of his debut
319 days in this case is 10 months, 15 days
He would go on to announce his retirement on July 4th of the same year, written 7/4
Birthday Numerology
Lou Gehrig was born in the Yorkville neighborhood of Manhattan
He had birth numerology lining up with “eclipse” in Hebrew and English:
June 19th is the 170th day of the year
Multiply the digits in his birthday and you get the “baseball” number. 162 is also found in the numerology of the date of his first game in the Major Leagues
He had double birth numerology of 38
38 is heavily-coded into killing and sacrifice rituals:
As is 17:
Gehrig died 17 days before his 38th birthday.
The 17th triangular number is 153. He died on June 19th, the 153rd day of the year.
Death Numerology
This date had 68 numerology, and it was a disease that wound up being named after him that he died from.
The day after Gehrig’s death marked a span of 23 months since his retirement speech.
The actual date of Gehrig’s death and his retirement had 23 numerology
Gehrig’s Major League debut came in the year ’23

Retirement
His retirement also fell on a date with 33 numerology, another number associated with sacrifice
By far, the most memorable and commonly-shown footage of Gehrig is from his retirement speech on Independence Day of 1939, where he calls himself the “Luckiest Man on the Face of the Earth.”
33 factors to 3 × 11
33 × 33 = 1089
157 is the 37th prime number, the age Gehrig would later die at.
Solar Eclipse Alignments
Birth
Looking back two total solar eclipses prior to his birthday:
1117 is the 187th prime number, and 11×17 = 187. 187 is also widely known as a homicide code.

From Gehrig’s birthday to the next total solar eclipse:
This is also 95 days, or 13 weeks, 4 days
“Eclipse” = 95 (Francis Bacon)
“Solar eclipse” = 134 (English Ordinal)
