Stull, tt 1s the doine of these impos- sible things that has made the high- strung Georgian the greatest ball- player in the world, Cobb, to-day, is fighting harder to get his basehits and have them recorded than at any time in his spectacular career, Out of four times up yester- day, in @ losing game, he made three singles, not one of which got past in the Infield. They were tributes to his remarkable speed. On the fourth at- tempt he would have landed again but for one of those freaks of luck that have broken the heart of many @ prospective champion. It was a sharp roller to Roger Peckinpaugh and should have gone for a single. There wasn't a chance In the world of Peck getting Cobb at first, according to the shortstop's own statement, but Bush happened to be on first at the time and was forced out at second, In other words if Bush had not reached first base a minute before, Cobb would have made four clean hits and climbed appreciably toward Speaker. On each occasion when Cobb reached first he would come back to the bench and inquire if the official scorer had given him a@ hit, On the day before there was a questionable one at short and the scorer gave Peckinpaugh an error, Cobb did not question the decision, but on his trip around the diamond consulted Peck- inpaugh as well as Umpire O'Lough- lin, They declared the blow should have been scored a hit and so testified to the official. The Georgian is over- looking no bets. To increase his speed in this last month of baseball Cobb has been ear~ Ing lightly and training like @ prize- fighter.
