... hitting in a swimming pool, who treated his bats as his prized possessions, whose hero was Ty Cobb. His father was his youth coach and he drove him hard. Jefferies' goal was not just to be a big leaguer, but to be the greatest hitter of all time. The Mets patiently brought him along through every step of their system where he was always a superior hitter. The problem was that Jefferies'...
... in Nevada weren't available to comment on the Washoe County trends.Republican State Assemblyman Ty Cobb represents many of those northwest Reno precincts. He said there wasn't much of a McCain presence in that area of northwest Reno. On the other hand, the south Truckee Meadows was targeted heavily by the McCain people, Cobb said."Obviously, if one campaign was working real hard and...
Walter Johnson was born today in 1887, in Humboldt, Kansas. Ty Cobb talked about facing Johnson the first time: The first time I faced him, I watched him take that easy windup. And then something went past me that made me flinch. The thing just hissed with danger. We couldn't touch him... every one of us knew we'd met the most powerful arm ever turned loose in a ball park. They called it a pneumonia...

... Looks, throws, catches, hustles.Part of one big team. Bats himself the live-long day, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and so on. If his team don’t field… what is he? You follow me? No one. Sunny day, the stands are full of fans. What does he have to say? I’m goin’ out there for myself. But… I get nowhere unless the team wins.Dems: Team![Reid beats Joe Lie with a baseball bat]freakishlystrong “Rancid...
... The list included Charles Barkely, Lebron James, Karl Malone, Barry Sanders, Patrick Ewing, Ty Cobb, you know, the usuals. One could easily add Reggie Miller to that list, but I’m not gonna. Now the obvious answer to this question would be me, but unlike these klutzes I’m actually a winner, not a loser. In middle school my class won field day in both sixth and eighth grades plus I have a...
... them questionable authentication firms that can make sure -- for a fee, of course -- that supposed Ty Cobb game-worn undershorts with pink hearts on them are the real McCoy. Not saying the memorabilia industry is crooked, but it is easy to get soaked.
Once upon a time before this Internet thing became popular it took a little bit more creativity to jack off. In a new segment, we're going to take a look at the women (and men!) who helped us get through our teenage years. Today's Hall of Fame Induction is Kelly Kapowski, the Ty Cobb of pre-Internet jacking off in the early 1990s. Considering I've seen every episode of "Saved By The Bell" at...

Ty Cobb did not fare as well. It was his last Series appearance and he struggled to a .231 average,...
... is the most conflicted sport. Included in its Hall of Fame are reputed incorrigibles like Ty Cobb, who has been accused of being a racist and a murderer (those claims have never been fully corroborated). Wade Boggs shamed the game with his excesses, such as an admitted sex addiction. He purportedly drank 64 beers on one plane flight. Yet he is in the baseball Hall of Fame while Pete Rose...
... researching his first book about the Kansas City A's, Katz says he would often sneak peeks at Ty Cobb's letter to Bobby Doerr, and photos of Cy Young brandishing trophies on the running boards of his car. What was inessential to his narrative was lifeblood to the baseball fan inside.The main level of the Giamatti library is just the beginning, however. A staff of 17 oversees the growth and...
