My understanding is that Cobb always had good success against Johnson. He said Johnson was afraid to "throw at" batters so he (Cobb) would crowd the plate knowing he was going to get an outside pitch. |

Of course, it didn't hurt that Cobb and Johnson were on friendly terms. I'm sure most of you are aware of the instances when Johnson would deliberately serve Cobb a slow, fat pitch in the final inning of a late-season game. |
