Ted ZanidakisIt didn't enter my mind.....but, you are very right how Ty Cobb and Joe Jackson were similar in certain respects.....
They grew up not to far from each other.
They both stood 6:1
They both threw right-handed and batted left-handed
They both started off as Right Fielders
They both struggled in the Majors their 1st (or 2nd) year
However.....
Their personalities differed quite significantly.
