I don't know what you are talking about, or whether you are agreeing with me or disagreeing, but the next 76 at bats easily could have yielded a quite different strike out number for Cobb against Ruth. Not like some inevitable percentage is established by 7 strike outs in just 76 at bats, which easily could have been 5, or 9. I'll let Travis supply the technical explanation but I am trusting my gut here.
