During the season of 1909 Cobb, Craw- ford and Bush made 546 of the 1,355 hits credited to the whole Detroit 12 ‘The best efforts of Crawford, Cobb & Co. were made during 1911 with J. Delehanty as filler in. This great trio made 649 base hits. The total number made by the team stood 1,546. There are just four records in the history of the game which excel the above mentioned record, and they were all made during the season of 1887, under the four strike rule. One of the slugging combinations to make a record was Tip O'Neal, Rob- inson and Charlie Comiskey of the St. Louis Browns. In the season of 1887 these three made 700 hits. The best record ever made in this respect was created by Pete Browning, Red Mack and Hub Collins of the old Louisville club in 1887. They raised the St.Louls combination’s mark by twenty points, making 720 hits, which is the record for all time. The old Baltimore team of 1895-6-7 had a great slugging com- bination in Keeler, Jennings and Kelly. The great trio of the Philadelphia Nationals from 1891 until 1895 were Delehanty, Thompson and Hamilton, and later Lajoie was added. They were wreckers of ball games, also of the hopes of many hurlers. . New York had three batsmen whe made the welkin ring with their te rific batting from 1886 until 1890. The names of Roger Connor, Jim O'Rourke and Mike Tiernan were feared by all hurlers, Less than a dozen seasons ago Mike Donlin, Mertes and Browne were the slugging triplets. Honus Wagner, Clarke and Leach were the cleanup crew for Pittsburgh for" several seasons, with Beaumont helping out. In the American league teame ing a battery of heavy artillerists are scarce. The great trio of sluggers who carried the men of Mack on to many victories are scattered. Colling, Baker and Mclinnis were a much feared com- bination, and hurlers had good reason to quake when facing them, For four seasons this bunch led all the slug- ging trios in the American, but the De- troit three have held® the honor in five different years, Crawford and Cobb always forming the main offensive force. Lajoie and Flick of the Cleve- lands, with a third party, were a big faorce in winning many games for their have Ateam. standing high jump, ¢~ for ~a
