This is the monster we point to as a means to convey how wild baseball's olden days really were and how intellectually inconsistent it is to deny anybody entry into the Hall of Fame because of the character clause. Certainly you know he sharpened his spikes to wound opposing players. Or that he once killed a guy with a baseball bat and then used that very bat to hit a home run the next day. Or that he pistol-whipped African-American men simply because they had the gall to share a sidewalk with him. Did you hear the one about him fighting a black groundskeeper over the condition of the Tigers' Spring Training field and then choking the man's wife when she intervened? Or the one about him jumping into the stands to beat up a fan who had no arms? Perhaps you've heard that he was a member of the Ku Klux Klan. There are a lot of these stories floating around about Cobb. It supposedly speaks to all we assume about Cobb, a great ballplayer with a mean streak and a racist wrath. You've heard that story, right? Most baseball fans have.

Were we to believe the legend, then right here, mere steps from the spot where a café now serves tofu bowls and green smoothies to people on their lunch breaks, is where Cobb tussled with a black man and stabbed him to death. In its place stands a glass-and-granite high-rise, gleaming in the spring sun. CLEVELAND - The building that housed one of Ty Cobb's most famous fights is gone.
