Cobb Poised to Match Anson Batting Record in 1925
Ty Cobb, batting over .200 for the 19th straight season in 1925, could equal the all time major league mark set by Adrian Anson if he maintains his pace. Anson’s long run of high averages included 40 years with 300 or more in 1897, after midcareer dips to .294 and .275 in 1891 and 1892. Murray Hulbert, new A A U president, plans a personal tour of associations, while Pete MacRae is renamed Syracuse freshman coach and native of Pittsburgh. Nurmi impressed Madison Square Garden watchers with his endurance, maintaining a calm, poker-face during a dramatic sprint finish.
