STUMP: Ty, you've got say something nice about Ruth in your book.

COBB: (reluctantly) Well, ok...he ran pretty good for a fat man.

Cobb used to say the same thing about Ruth. "I could knock the ball out of the park all the time, too, if I wanted to. But that's not baseball."

After years of this, some writer finally called BS. Cobb then said watch this, I'll start trying for HR's. He hit five in his next two games, a record that stood unmatched by anyone for 80 years, until the Steroid Era of today.

"See?" He felt like he had proven his point, and went back to slapping and legging it out, a la Ichiro.

EDIT: Oops, sorry for the hijack.

I was going to go with, "Playoffs???", but someone beat me to it.

Instead, I'll go with, "I don't believe what I just saw! I don't believe what I just saw!"
