Ty Cobb's teammates threaten a strike unless he is reinstated...
THE EVENING TIMES, Pawtucket, Rhode Island, May 18, 1912 The front page has two column heads: "Johnson Firm In Stand Against Cobb" with subhead: "Detroit Baseball Players Declare They Will Not Represent Club Against Philadelphia Today--Semi-Professionals to Replace Regular Tigers".
Page 2 has more on this with a column head: "BAN ON COBB MAY CAUSE STRIKE" "Tigers Say They Will Not Play in Phila. Unless Ty's Suspension is Lifted" with more. Plus, there is a nice head photo of "TY COBB - Detroit's Spectacular Ball Player Whose Suspension for Slugging Fan Has Started a Revolt Against the Johnson Regime by the Tigers."
This episode remains part of baseball lore. Many websites document Cobb's encounter with a New York fan.
