Baseball legend stars in “Ripken Safety Tip of the Month”
Hall of Famer Cal Ripken, Jr. may be retired from baseball, but he’s staying active – and his activities include an occupational safety video series for ISHNtv.
Nicknamed “The Iron Man,” Ripken played 21 seasons for the Baltimore Orioles, primarily as shortstop. While his career statistics are impressive (3,184 hits, 431 home runs), it was Ripken’s never-miss-a-game reputation that earned him the most admiration. He played in 2,632 games -- the most consecutive games played by anyone in baseball history.
