 I think all the Cobbs from T206 are cool, but the bat off just has everything going for it, putting it at the top of my list.

That was actually a little tongue in cheek. When I was a kid, I was told he held his hands apart when he batted. Only years later, reading quotes from him, did I learn that he didn't swing the bat like that, which is very tough to do. The grip allowed him to bunt easier and if he swung the bat, he slid his top hand down. Basically he said, keep them always guessing. If the infield came in, he could slap one past them, if they didn't, he laid down a bunt

Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game.
