Ty Cobb spent 24 seasons in Major League Baseball. During that time he appeared in the World Series three times, all in a row. From 1907 to 1909 Cobb had a chance to etch his name in the history books. He found his way into the books, just not on the right side of history!
You might even call Ty Cobb the original Jim Kelly. He may have lost three World Series, but it wasn’t because of how he played. Cobb retired in 1928, spending the last two years of his career with the Philadelphia Athletics. He never won another pennant.
