Synopsis

Tyrus Raymond Cobb (December 18, 1886 - July 17, 1961), nicknamed "the Georgia Peach", was an American Major League Baseball center fielder. Born in rural Narrows, Georgia. Cobb spent 22 seasons with the Detroit Tigers, the last six as the team's player-manager, and finished his career with the Philadelphia Athletics. In 1936, Cobb received the most votes of any player on the inaugural ballot for the National Baseball Hall of Fame, receiving 222 out of a possible 226 votes (98.2%). Considered one of the top three baseball players ever, Cobb finished his career with a .367 batting average, 4189 hits, 897 stolen bases and 1944 RBIs. In this recording, Cobb discusses the best pitchers he ever faced, and life after his baseball retirement.
