Well, Up o 1984 | © He Hadn’t Much Detroit, IFeb, 20,—Ty Cobb, man- ager of the Detroit Tygers, has been attracting the attention of baseball fans since his second year in the American league. That’ was back in 11906, He jolned the Tygers the year | before much the same as any reeruit breaks into the big league, but it did not take the Georgia Peach long to demonstrate that he was quite differ- cnt from the ordinary rooky. During the 1905 season Cobb failed to hit in the .300 class. Since then he not failed to hit in the select circle of batters, Next spring the Tyger leader will begin his 20th sea- son with the Detroit team and he is |attracting nearly as much attention as he did when _he was ecarning his ! reputation as the greatest all-round player in the game. However, the at- tention he now is attracting is a littie | different, Baseball fans have become | accustoined to Cobb batting .300, but | new they are asking: “Is Cobb slow- ing up?” “Will Cobb bat .200 next season?” “Will next scason be Cobb's last as an abtiv or?’ 0 the first guestion the answer is s without qualification, Bascball | players in the major leagues are v |garded as old at 35, Few of them eyver attain the age of 40 in the big show. |Cobb in hetween those two figures, Ihence there is no duobt that he has I slowed up considerably from the years !when it was regarded an ordinary feat {for him to steal not only segond, but |third base. There is no reason why Cobb xhemd Inot bat 300 next season. He has done lit for 18 consccutive scasons and by |doing it cear cstablished himsell |as the only player in the history of the {major leagues who has hit for .300 or years in a row. The late Anson did it 20 years, Captain A xl.u‘h of which he fell below .300, Whether the next campaign will be Cobb's lust as an active player is up to Cobb himself, Judging from his phys- feal condition he should be able to play the outfield for at least three {more years, barring accidents, He has threatened to retire as an active play- er and whether he will carry out that | threat at the close of next season time lonly can tell.
