Don't forget.... this was 1921. Ruth, although a star, was not the star he was by the end of the '20s. Ty Cobb was known as the game's greatest player in the early '20s.

Did you notice the name of last night's episode was "The Georgia Peaches"? (Geogia Peach was Ty Cobb's nickname).


thanks for explaining that. another reason i came up with ruth because he is playing for the yankees at the time and cobb was in detroit. and, yea i knew about his nickname.
