80
ords were tied by Cobb.
. By batting better than 300 Cobb
equa1ed the record of Hans Wagner,
who for II seasons, topped that
figure.
In making more than 200 base
hits, he equaled the record of Will
lie Keller, who for eight seasons,
beat that mark.
BY batting better than 400 Cobb
equaled the feat of Jesse Burkett,
who, for three seasons, recorded a
400 or better average.
Cobb's record, in a way, is more
remarkable than Burkett's, since
the foul strike rule was not in eff
feet when Burkett was in the game.
However, the ball today is much
livelier than the one Burkett hit at.
Rogers Hornsby, by getting three
hits in five times at bat in the last
game, finished the season a trifle
better than 400.
Not since 1899 has eny National
League player batted over 400. In
that year Ed Delehanty with the
Philadelphia Nationals had a mark
of .40S.
Only eight National League play
ers since the inception of that organ
ization have batted better than 400
The showing of the Boston Red
Sox against the New York Yankees
during 1922 is proof positive of the
uncertainties of the National pas
time.
New York won the pennant in the
American League. Boston finished
last, yet the Red Sox team was the
only club to win the series from the
American League pennant winners,
Boston taking 13 of the 20 games.
Joe Bush, who by his great pitch
ing, materially assisted New York
in winning the American League
pennant, also has a grievance
against the Red Sox.
Bush won 26 games and lost only
Z, yet five of the seven games that
he lost were won by Boston.
Another unusual series was the
one staged between the Detroit
Tigers and the Chicago White Sox.
Inability to beat Chicago was one
of the big reasons why the Detroit
club had to be content with third
place. Chicago won II out of the %
games player with the Tigers.
Another incident decidedly out of
the ordinary was the feat Of the
young college pitcher, Pruett, of the
st. Louis Browns, who struck out
Babe Ruth nine times during the
season.
The game in which the Chicago
Cubs peat the Phillies 26 to 20 will
live long in the records of baseball
as one of the greatest of suggests.

MANY RECORDS
WERE BROKEN
Past Year Was Most Excit-
ing One in Both the Big
Leagues
BY Billy Evans

The 1922 baseball season just
closed, stands out as one of the
most remarkable in major league
history.
The unexpected has happened,
records have been broken, thrills
galore have been produced.
The American League pennant
winner was not decided until a day
before the close of the season.
Third place in the American
League race, which carries with it a
juicy cut An the world series, also
hung in the balance until a day be-
fore the close of the race
Some idea of the battle for third
place whicn was won by Detroit can
be CLEANED from the fact that De-
troit finished n game ahead of
Cleveland, the fourth pace team
and the Indians were just n game
in advance of Chicago.
In the National League, second
and third place positions in the race
were not decided until the final day
of the season.
Cincinnati, by winning a double
header from Pittsburgh took second
place from that club. An even split
would have insured the Pittsburg
club the running-up position. st.
Louis. by defeating Chicago worked
itself into a tie with Pittsburg for
third place honors.
The home-run habit started two
year. back, continued throughout
the 1922 season. AS a result, home
run totals were shattered.
Last season the American League
teams made ATT home runs. the Ma
tional AGO, a total OF ss7 circuit
clouts.
In the campaign Just closed the
National League made 500 homers.
the American SIS, a total of 1854.
A. new home-run king was crown
ed in the person of Roger Hornsby.
With AZ home runs to his credit he
dethroned the erstwhile "Sultan of
Swat" Babe Ruth. Last season
Hornsby madeonly Fl home runs.
In the American League. Ken
Williams of st. Louis and Tilly
Walker of Philadelphia nosed out
Babe Ruth. A late start Of eight
weeks cut Ruth's figure to 35 for
the season. Williams made 49,,
Walker 81.
Hornsby, in making AZ home runs
set a new National League figure.
In 1884 Ed Williamson made II
home runs. That mark has stood
the test of all great hitters until
Hornsby came through.
Ken Williams of the Browns and
Walter Henline Of the Phillies in
making. three home runs in n
game, pulled the unusual.
Walker of the Athletics and
Hornsby of the st. Louis Cardinals
on five occasions during the season,
made two home runs in a game
Connie Mack's team after holding
undisputed possession Of last place
in the American League since 1914,
emerged from that damp dark hole
in favor of the Boston Red Sox.
The winning of 81 games by Eddie
Rommel, with the Athletics. stands
out as one of the greatest pitching
performances in years. The Ath-
letics won 65 games. Rommel win
ming nearly half of them.
Ty Cobb, as usual, played a prom
inent part in the unusual happen
