DESCRIPTION:The character of controversial baseball legend Ty Cobb is split
  into\nthree differently aged versions of himself: The Peach\, aged ninete
 en\,\nat the beginning of his long career with the Detroit Tigers\; Ty\, i
 n\nhis early forties\, at the end of his playing days\; and Mr. Cobb\, in\
 nhis early seventies\, at the point of death from cancer. The play\nfloats
  freely in time\, moving back and forth among the Cobbs as they\ncontend w
 ith each other\, and the audience\, over whom Ty Cobb really\nwas and what
  he represented. Invading this self-imposed “argument in\nlimbo” is Os
 car Charleston\, a black player of Cobb’s time who\,\nthough relegated t
 o the Negro Leagues\, was dubbed the “Black Cobb”\nby the white press.
  Ty tries to avoid Charleston just as he always\navoided playing exhibitio
 n games against him or any other black\nplayers. As Cobb fights both popul
 ar opinion\, and himself\, to justify\nhis life\, Charleston provides a de
 eper challenge to his self-esteem.\nUltimately we come to know Cobb in his
  full complexity—as a sports\nhero of the highest order\, fulfilling one
  of America’s most\ncherished dreams\, and as an example of some of its 
 greatest failures.\nProduced by special arrangement with Dramatic Play Ser

 popular opinion\, and himself\, to justify his life\, Charleston provides 
 a deeper challenge to his self-esteem. Ultimately we come to know Cobb in
