During the collage of Gehrig's first road trip as a starter, when the Yankees are in Washington, a runner is shown running from 1st base and sliding into home, under the catcher's tag. (It's known that they flipped the film to make Gary Cooper, a right hander, look like he was left handed, like Lou Gehrig.)This is not a "Revealing mistake" as knowing "they flipped the film" is not the same as seeing the mistake on the film. Also, according to a Trivia item, the only "flipped" footage was a brief sequence portraying Gehrig's minor-league days at Hartford. Instances of Cooper throwing a ball as a Yankee were filmed using his stand-in, Babe Herman.
