I won the Sports Shorts trivia show one day in elementary school but my dad gave me the answer. Anybody remember JBO sports shorts?

I won the Sports Short contest one morning.

The question was "Lou Gehrig started his consecutive games played streak of 2,130 consecutive games, which stood as an MLB record for 56 years, when he started a game at first base because the regular first base starter had a headache.

What was the name of the regular starting first baseman Gehrig substituted for?"
