Did you know that Ty Cobb brought a black bat to every game during the 1907 season, but never used it once? How about Orlando Cepeda who only used "productive bats" — those which had not made any outs.

Hall of famer Ralph Kiner NEVER stopped on the foul lines and when he was asked about the superstition he replied, "It didn't hurt or help me. I just didn't want to take any chances."
