MLB Journeyman Pitcher Jim Poole Dies @ 57 From ALS
Jim Poole was born on the 28th of April, or 28/4:
Jim Poole, who pitched in the ’95 World Series for the Cleveland Indians, has reportedly died after a battle with ALS at age 57.
Poole is actually the third person I’ve blogged about to die at age 57 from ALS. See my post on Bryan Randall from just two months ago, and my post on NFL player Steve Smith from November of 2021. He also died less than a week after the passing of Tim Wakefield, another MLB pitcher, at age 57.
ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is also commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, named after another former Major League Baseball player, Lou Gehrig.
Henry Louis Gehrig has matching 200 gematria with Cleveland Indians.
Jim Poole was born 298 months after Lou Gehrig died, and passed away at the age of 20980 days:
Lou Gehrig was born on the 19th of June, or 19/06:
James Richard Poole was born in Rochester, New York.
Rochester, New York
Gehrig sums to 126, matching Poole’s birthplace of Rochester, New York.
That final game was played 183 days after Jim Poole’s birthday and 183 days before his next:
Rochester has more overlap with ALS.
John Madden
The death of Steve Smith was connected to the release of that year’s Madden NFL game. John Madden, who was born on 4/10, passed away just one month later.
Lou died shortly after his retirement in the year ’41. This connection appears to carry over to this story as well.
It may seem obscure to tie Madden into this, but also consider how John Madden‘s common and full names have immense overlap with ALS.
647 is the 118th Prime number
Jim’s birthday was the 118th day of the year:
Stephen Hawking
Henry Louis Gehrig has matching gematria with both John Madden and Madden.
See my old post from when Stephen Hawking died if you’d like. He also died of ALS.
Eclipse Code
Hawking died on Pi Day, 3/14
Pi (π) = 3.14…
If you add every permutation of 314 together, 134+143+314+341+413+431 = 1776. Jim Poole was 10776 days old when his Indians lost the World Series.
The next total lunar Eclipse happens in 2025.
It will actually be Pi Day in ’25. Poole died on 10/6.
The number 108 is very significant to the Moon, Sun, and Lunar eclipses:
Hawking was born on January 8th, or 1/08, matching Gehrig and Mathematics of the circle:
Poole = 18 died exactly 18 weeks after the anniversary of Gehrig’s death.
Poole died a span of 2238 days after the first Great American Eclipse and 185 days before the second:
More on Poole / Hawking / Gehrig
Just like Stephen Hawking himself, his alignments with Lou Gehrig and Jim Poole simply won’t seem to go away.
Poole was from Rochester, and both men died of ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease in connection to the Cleveland Indians and Madden.
Naturally, Stephen William Hawking has matching 328 gematria with Lou Gehrig’s disease.
