john/z28jd Ted,Hoff faced Cobb in his 2nd game,his first game was a relief appearance vs the Senators a week prior(the date you noted above). I've seen that wrong a few places online as well as the fact he said striking him out was his greatest thrill when in fact he said he didn't know he was pitching to Cobb at the time,he found out the next day,then he was thrilled. I find that hard to believe that not only did he have no idea Cobb was batting,but no one mentioned it to him when they handed him the ball,or even after the inning ended? Who was gonna argue with a 100 year old guy retelling a story though from almost 80 years prior
