Ty Cobb spikes Frank Baker 1909.


If I am allowed to state Bakers spike wound was in no way intentional and was unavoidable, per picture, also he did not lose an innings play and think records will show he played in all games for rest of season, that I have always resented the unfair and untrue account of this matter. I will give you anything else you want me to say in Bakers behalf, mind you I do not & would not say Baker was responsible for the charge of untruth in papers etc. - Ty Cobb

So, Griffey was not the innovator that he was purported to be!!
Didn't Bottomley also like to wear his cap askew? I wonder if he and Maranville caught the same kind of flak that Griffey did for wearing his backwards...

Walter's delivery was often compared to skimming stones over a lake. His back leg never comes forward.
Some called it buggy-whip.

Billy DeBeck was a famous cartoonist who founded Barney Google and Snuffy Smith in 1919. Prior to that he drew sports cartoons for the Chicago Herald and Examiner. Here is one for May 11, 1918.

On May 18, 1918, DeBeck used his recurring theme of the New York Giants as an evil Snidely Whiplash character trying to capture the pretty Kitty Cop and the baby Buddy Bacon representing the pennant.

Babefan found this one. Look at the money on this cadets wall. Its loaded with 1911 Baseball cards of virtually every player.

[Bill Burgess]

Who was this guy? Anybody good?

He was an average player but a real jerk of a person. He's the reason why Cobb played right field for his first few years instead of center. McIntyre played left for the Tigers and Cobb played center when Ty first came up. The two hated each other with a passion and during one game both men intentionally let a base hit roll between them to the fence as they stared each other down. The runner got an inside the park home run. After that, the Tigers manager split them up and moved Cobb to RF and put Sam Crawford in CF.

McIntyre died at age 39 after contracting Tuberculosis (I think).

Anyways, it's a good picture of him.

Sounds like a heck of a guy.

Matty was an AL left-fielder, 1901-12.
This photo is from 1912, his last season, as a White Sox.
He died April 2, 1920, Detroit, MI, age 40, of tuberculosis, never having made his peace with Ty or shaking his hand. But Matty was a good ballplayer in 1908, helping his team to win a pennant.

Thanks for reposting my pics Bill. I didnt even realize this thread existed as I primarily just go to panoramics. My eyes are open now so its time to see what goodies are in the rest of the threads. Is there an easier way to determine whats in a thread without going all thru it? There are so many. Thanks again ....

Hi Babefan. If I were new to Fever, I'd start off by exploring the thread that is stuck at the top of History, "Classic, Vintage Threads".

There are a variety of subjects. Photo threads, player tribute threads, comparison threads at the bottom, etc.

April 10, 1913 Opening Day Giants' lineup at the Polo Grounds.

Since my wife convinced us to visit her brother in Florida in 1987, I convinced her to go during spring training. I was a Reds fan, so here are some pictures of the relaxed atmosphere. Here the Reds are stretching pre-game

[RuthMayBond]

Here is a shot of the dugout. Little did I know at the time I got a shot of a very young Paul O'Neill

[RuthMayBond]

I knew enough to get a picture of Eric Davis (he might have also signed).

[RuthMayBond]

I also knew enough to get a pic of the Cobra, Dave Parker. This game was so relaxed that Parker warmed up late in the game by running along the warning track WHILE the Twins were playing the field.

I love these photo threads. hope no one minds if I resurrect this one.
These two photos come from the LIFE magazine archive.
First Johnny Bench scoring against the Houston Astros. This happened during the second major league game I ever attended, May 30, 1972, on his only career inside-the-park home run, which he hit off Don Wilson in the Astrodome. Astros' C Johnny Edwards and Reds' 1B Joe Hague also pictured. Umpire is Dick Stello.

Second, Ted Kluszewski, apparently from a 1956 spring training game against the Yankees.

[rbrittain56]

Some Harmon Killebrew. Photo source for all: Corbis
1. 17-year old "Bonus Baby" Killebrew with Senators' manager Bucky Harris in 1954
2. 22-year old Killebrew in 1959
3. Bob Allison, Hal Griggs and Killebrew in the locker room after a game. I had to alter this photo because Mr. Allison was not...properly attired.
4. Killebrew is congratulated by teammates Ken Aspromonte (#4), Bob Allison (#26) and Roy Sievers (#2) after hitting a 3-run homer off Art Ditmar in the first inning of a game at Yankee Stadium in 1959.
5. 1960 Opening Day lineup, sans Bob Allison. Billy Gardner, Lenny Green, Don Mincher, Jim Lemon, Harmon Killebrew, Earl Battey, Billy Consolo and Camilo Pascual.
