plus he lied about it over and over....besides...half his “hits” were “astro turf infield” singles...overrated knuckle head...
He would not have made a AAA his last year and only played to break the record
A bogus record by him IMHO
Cobb hit 312 his last year and if he knew a slunk like Rose would hang on to break his record he could have played at least another year
