special attention. If Tyrus can hit him
right at the start and keep hitting him
he does not worry. II the pitcher
proves too much for him Cobb will do
some thinking, watching and planning,
and, SO far, has seldom lost.
For two years Doc White Of Connis-
keys team had Cobb for the goat
Twice. it lis on record, he made Cobb
fan three times during single game
1T looked as If White had Tyrus for
mark forever, and 1t became a stand
ard joke of baseball that there was
never yet buffalo like that which
White held on Cobb.
Cobb kept UP the war against his
master He tried changing his stand
at bat and the way he held his stick,
but never did he get the ghost of hit
off White till he stepped quickly back
of the plate and met the ball after the
break. That settled 1t. After that the
buffalo was gone--Cobb had White, and
White had Cobb no more.
Naturally. every one wants to know
each year why Cobb proves more or
less of failure in the annual worlds
series. The reason is this: "A typically
Southern player like Cobb cannot play
good ball in cold weather. You will
remember that the spring of 1909 was
very cold. and that Cobb was hitting
way under grade until the warmth ar
rived. The worlds series Is always
played in bitter cold, and under such
circumstances Tyrus is a fizzle.
THE real point about Cobb is this:
That instead of being simply wild
hit or miss batsman he Is thinker
and student of the game. Moreover,
in his home city he is even more popu-
lar as citizen than as ball player,
and nobody could have more friends.
I had the pleasure of attending the
big. affair when Honey Boy Evans pre-
scented Cobb the famous silver cup.
Tyrus was scared to death, and all
ways is before crowd insisting on a
speech, but came through all right and
received rafting hand"

General Rule That Good Batter. Can

GIVE me a ballplayer who can hit

No doubt in most cases such a state
ment would work out as truthful one
but IL looks as If Dode Criss of the St
Louis Browns was going to be an ex-
ception to the rule. Criss can hit. but
it seems as If he just cannon do any

capable of batting 800 in the biz
league may be forced to take a berth
in minor league.
