Lou Gehrig's first missed game after 2130 consecutive came on May 2, 1939 against the Detroit Tigers at Briggs Stadium in Detroit.

The Yankees won that game 22-2 and Lou would not play in another. He lost his life to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis just two years and one month later on June 2, 1941.
