Ty Cobb Batting Against Cleveland Indians
Description
A slide of a black-and-white, full-length photograph of Ty Cobb (left) batting against the Cleveland Indians at League Park. The photograph is from the third base side of the field near home plate. Cobb is in the left-handed batter's box with his front (right) foot off the ground as he prepares to swing the baseball bat he is holding. He is looking over his right shoulder toward the pitcher's mound. He is wearing a Detroit Tigers. An unknown catcher (center) and umpire (right) stand behind home plate. They are in profile with their left side visible. The blurry background shows the dugout and fans in the grandstand. See cobbty01_87.
