GREAT SUMMER READ!
What They Really Said About Ty Cobb is a 2023 publication by the Ty Cobb Museum in Royston, Georgia, designed to counter the negative myths surrounding the baseball legend by compiling 375 quotes from 256 people who knew him personally. That is the best way to dispel rumor from fact... eyewitness testimony, personal reflections based on firm historical foundations, and a weight of people over time who actually knew the real man- Tyrus Raymond Cobb.

Memorial Day Weekend in the United States has long been a time to pause and commemorate the soldiers, sailors, and Marines—and all service members—who fell in the line of duty while serving our nation. It’s a weekend for remembrance, gratitude, and reflection on the sacrifices that made our everyday freedoms possible.

Baseball has been a part of that story for generations—bringing communities together, filling ballparks with families, and creating a shared tradition where we can honor the fallen with moments of silence, ceremonies, and heartfelt appreciation.

As we head into the weekend, we remember those who never came home, we hold their families close, and we commit to carrying their legacy forward with respect and gratitude.

Reminder: The Ty Cobb Museum will be closed for the Memorial Day holiday on May 25, 2026. We’ll reopen Tuesday, May 26, 2026.

Tris Speaker, Babe Ruth, and Ty Cobb were fiercely competitive—and they loved getting the best of one another, whether on the baseball diamond, the golf course, or even while mugging for the camera!

In 1941, Ty Cobb defeated Babe Ruth in a best-of-three charity golf series known as the “Left-Handed, Has-Beens” championship, winning 2–1 with victories in the first and final matches. The event raised money for Golden Rule Farm in New Hampshire and the United Service Organizations.

Cobb was awarded a silver loving cup trophy donated and presented by actress Bette Davis, which he proudly displayed alongside his Hall of Fame plaque. Afterward, Cobb remarked he had finally beaten Ruth at something, while Ruth acknowledged Cobb’s superior putting.
