A Fascinating Legend That Surrounds the Storied Career of Ty Cobb Centers on the Time He Hit Five Home Runs Over a Two-Game Stretch in 1925. the Detroit Star Didn’t Think It Took a Lot of Talent to Hit Home Runs and Was Convinced That His Way of Playing the Game Was Vastly Superior. So, as the Legend Goes, He Took Time in St. Louis to Show That, If He Had Wanted To, He Could Hit a Lot of Homers, Too. Cobb’s Disdain for the Post-1920 Proliferation of the Long Ball Was Well-Documented. in Particular, He Hated Slugger Babe Ruth and How the Bambino Had Transformed the Game. Cobb Thought the Deluge of Home Runs Minimized the Need for Strategies He Honed to Perfection During the Dead Ball; Skills Like Bunting, the Hit-And-Run, Using the Whole Field, and the Stolen Base. One of the People Who Had Reportedly Heard Ty Cobb Predict His Power Surge, Sid Keener, Was a Respected Sports Journalist.
He Later Served as the Director of Baseball’s Hall-Of-Fame from 1952 to 1963 and Might Be Considered a Reliable Source. One Wonders If Someone in the Public Eye Like Keener, Would Stick to This False Narrative Like He Did in Subsequent Years. If It Had Been Proven That Cobb Didn’t Say Those Things Before a Game in St. Louis in 1925, Keener Would Have Been Discredited in His Profession. Coupled with the Facts That Ty Cobb Was Impulsive, High Strung and Enormously Egotistical, Keener and Salsinger's Account Rings True. One Could Easily See Cobb Making Such a Boast and Then Having the Talent (Along with a Little Bit of Luck) to Pull It Off. Thats Why Ty Cobb Is One of the Best Players Ever.
