A’s player-manager Ty Cobb collects the last hit of his career

A’s player-manager Ty Cobb collects the last hit of his career when he doubles off right-hander Bump Hadley in the team’s 6-1 loss to Washington at Griffith Stadium. The 41 year-old ‘Georgia Peach’ will end his playing days, establishing the major league record for hits with 4,191, a mark which remains until Pete Rose surpasses it in 1985.
