In 1910 Cobb was on track to win the AL batting title and with it would have won a car. He was disliked by the Browns players enough that they purposefully let Lajoie go 8-8 in a doubleheader to try to prevent Cobb from winning the batting title. Take it for what it’s worth but I doubt he was a nice guy if players had that much disdain for him. All time great none-the-less
