"When (Lou) Gehrig quit, he gave his first baseman's glove to Pete Sheehy, the Yankee clubhouse attendant. 'Pete,' he said, 'I won't need this anymore.' Dahlgren had a brand new glove he hadn't even used. 'I'll trade you, Pete,' he said. Sheehy gave him Gehrig's old glove and Dahlgren has had it since." - John Kuenster in Baseball Digest (August 1979)
