Cobb tops Speaker in batting lead and post season talk
Sport notes report Ty Cobb told trainer Harry Tuthill he would keep his promise and prove his confidence by surpassing Tris Speaker in the league batting race, a goal Cobb said would mark Speaker as no longer ahead this season. Also noted is Indianapolis eyeing a post season series with Providence, with costs of travel a potential loss if poorly attended. Cincinnati catcher Tom Clarke fears a right arm issue affecting long throws, plans specialist care, yet remains confident in his batting. Michigan football hopefuls will be scarce as only part of the 1917 team will report for fall practice, others serving in the military.
