Cobb used to lie awake at night figuring how he could get even. These same hecklers and razzers drove Herb Hash almost crazy when he first started with the Red Sox. "Hash" was raw meat for the wolves in the opposing dugout Joe Medwick, Lefty Grove, Ted Williams and the greatest of them all, Lou Gehrig, had to go through the grinder to baseball fame.

Say fellows, did you know that our good little boy went to church yesterday?" It was tough, but the boy stuck it out He is in a responsible position now and enjoys telling younger fellows that even the hecklers and razzers have a deep respect for the man, young or old, who can stand up and take it.
