I'm only a couple of minutes in and am already ticked off with the interviewer. Cobb was offering some amazing insight by listing lesser-known pitchers who he had trouble with. This was, after all, perfectly answering the interviewer's question as to who were the toughest pitchers he faced. It was fascinating to hear him mention George Mogridge and Carl Weilman...then, the interviewer interrupts him just so he can hear Cobb say the obvious: Mathewson, Johnson, Young, etc. I did get a chuckle out of Cobb specifying "'Old' Cy Young"! Wouldn't want to confuse Denton with Irv!

Pete someone posted awhile back Ty being on "What's My Line"
& I thought the same thing about his lack of southern accent

Wow thanks for posting. I’d never heard his voice before.

This is great !
He seems advanced and ahead of his time .. he believes the Athletics Will “repeat” and the Cubs will “repeat “
Love his comment on the Athletics - “ they have a young club that has just found themselves “
- List great pitchers by their first and last name except for “ .. and Alexander”
