Cobb Hits for the Cycle
The Detroit Wolverines lost, 16-11, to the Miami Cuban Giants at Baker Bowl, and none took the loss harder than Ty Cobb, who saw a sensational game -- in which he hit for the cycle -- wasted.

"It feels really, really bad," he said later. "You feel like you deserve the win with a day like that."

The right fielder ripped Miami pitching for 4 hits in 5 at-bats and tallied 2 runs batted in. Cobb also scored 3 runs on his remarkable day.

Ty Cobb flied out in the 1st, singled in the 4th, doubled in the 6th, hit a two-run home run off Ray Lamb in the 8th and tripled in the 9th.

This season, Cobb is batting .375 with 36 home runs. He has scored 107 runs and driven in 97.
