| | Ty Cobb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Cobb felt that it was those mind games of his that caused Jackson to "fall off" to a final average of.408, while Cobb himself sailed home with a.420 average, 248 hits, 147 runs scored, 144 RBI, 83 stolen bases, and the league lead in doubles, triples, and slugging average. |
 | | Cobb abhorred Ruth's power game, and when he saw fans becoming enamored with the Babe, he was afraid that the "inside style" of bunting, taking the extra base and hitting the ball to gaps that he had perfected would fall by the wayside. |
 | | When Ty was not working the farm for his father, he was honing his baseball skills by playing for the Royston Rompers and the semi-pro Royston Reds during his early and mid-teens. |
