A few weeks ago when Ty Cobb
was trying to break his own record
OF hitting safely In 40 consecutive
games, the eyes OF baschau were upon
him.
A few days ago, a National league
player, not generally credited with
being a great hitter performed a
batting feat. which for him was a.
great as Cobb's hitting in 30 conse.
cutive games.
The pla.e was Heine Groh. Of the
Reds, who batted safely In 23 conse.

the last game OF n double header
against Boston. The hitting was .he
more remarkable as most of II was
accomplished during the Reds siump
