Capture Memories with a Major League Baseball Coffee Mug   by Matt Traverso

Major League Baseball has become a staple of American culture, along with Ford cars and apple pie. Many historians believe that baseball was first truly created by a man named Alexander Cartwright in the mid-1840s. Mr. Cartwright developed an entire list of rules that are still used in professional baseball to this very day and were the basis from which modern baseball evolved from. Other historians believe that baseball was invented by Abner Doubleday, although the majority of the evidence seems to point to Cartwright as the true founder of the sport. Playing Major League Baseball has been the dream of little boys around the country for decades. The sport has produced some of the biggest larger than life heroes than any other sport, and still inspires millions today. If you have a baseball fan in your family, the perfect gift for any occasion is a Major League Baseball coffee mug with a picture of their favorite baseball hero.
One of the most popular baseball heroes whose image has found its way onto a number of collectible products, including MLB coffee mugs, is the Great Bambino Babe Ruth. Babe Ruth is most famously known for being the first professional baseball player to hit 60 homeruns in one season. This amazing record was set in the year 1927 and was not broken until 1961 by another baseball legend, Roger Maris. Babe Ruth is one of the most iconic sports heroes of all time, and many true fans of the sport of baseball have a special place in their heart for this major league slugger.
Another MLB legend that fans of all ages enjoy reading about and collecting memorabilia from is Lou Gehrig. Gehrig was a man who truly loved the sport he played with a deep passion. He earned the nickname “Iron Horse” due to the fact that he seldom missed a game, playing 2,130 games consecutively. When you review the history this means he never missed a game from 1925 to 1939. During his career, Gehrig won 7 World Series Championships and was Runs Batted In Champion 5 different times. All of his achievements and his unrivaled work ethic have placed Gehrig in a class with some of the sport’s most legendary players. Fans have been collecting his baseball cards for years. Getting a picture of Gehrig put on a mug is a great way to let the baseball historian in your life know how much you love them.
Owning one of these beautiful collector mugs with a photo of your favorite baseball hero can become a priceless treasure and a great conversation piece. You can get one of these types of mugs by purchasing one online, which is a convenient means of shopping for gifts for your loved one.
