HBT: On this date, Cobb beat a man badly

Via BTF, we are reminded that today is the 96th anniversary of Ty Cobb doing something which, if today?s Hall of Fame voters are to be believed, wasn?t as bad as taking some HGH: he beat the hell out of a fan:

My favorite part came right afterward. It seems that AL President Ban Johnson was actually at the game. He was asked afterward if Cobb would get a suspension. He said ?I don?t know until I hear the facts ??

The story went on to say that the Highlanders lost because they were ?unable to match the Tigers in rungetting.?

Ah, it was a simpler time. If by ?simpler? you mean freakin? absurd.
