I'm not exactly sure what you mean but Cobb only missed hitting .300 his rookie year and he played in the dead ball era with misshappen baseball covered with spit and substances. He also sounds like the single most exciting player to watch ever in baseball.
The fact he was the very first into the basball hall of fame, even with more votes then Ruth, should say something.
