"you wouldnt believe all the players who wanted to come...ty cobb wanted to come, but none of us could stand the son of a bitch when he was alive - so we told him to stick it! ha ha ha"
@j4bologna - today there is talk that baseball was not as exciting back then as today because fewer runs were scored. That myth is absolute nonsense. Yes, fewer runs were scored. But the game was over in 2 hours or less. Anyone who thinks baseball wasn't as exciting in those days should watch a replay of the '68 Series between the Tigers & Cards. That was baseball at its FINEST. Anyone who denies that either wasn't around or just doesn't know baseball. It was a better game & great time.
No mention of the Lions? They have as many championships as the Tigers and won their first in 1935 along with the Tigers and Red Wings.
