According to many observers, Ty Cobb may have been baseball's greatest player. His batting accomplishments are legendary—a lifetime average of .367, 297 triples, 4,191 hits, 12 batting titles (including nine in a row), 23 straight seasons in which he hit over .300, three .400 seasons (topped by a .420 mark in 1911), and 2,245 runs. Nicknamed "The Georgia Peach," Cobb stole 892 bases during a 24-year career, primarily with the Detroit Tigers.
