Timeline

1904

Andrew Howard Cohen (October 25, 1904 – October 29, 1988), nicknamed the "Tuscaloosa Terror", was an American professional baseball player, coach, and manager.

1925

In 1925 Cohen batted .312 for Waco of the Texas League.

1926

He played as a second baseman in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the New York Giants, from 1926 to 1929.

In May 1926, the Giants purchased Cohen's contract for $20,000 ($0 today) from the Waco team in the Texas League.

Cohen debuted in a May 31, 1926, game against the Philadelphia Phillies, with a pinch hit single to center field batting for Frankie Frisch, and an assist in the field.

Cohen batted .257 in 32 games with the Giants in the 1926 season, with 9 hits (including a triple) in 35 at bats.

Cohen played 10 games at second, 10 as shortstop, and two at third base.

McGraw gave Cohen the option to stay with the team, but Cohen chose to be sent to Buffalo of the International League, where he would have an opportunity to be an everyday player.

The Sporting News wrote that he had: "all the natural characteristics (physically) of his race — thick, dark hair, dark skin and keen mentality."

1927

In 1927, he batted .353 for the Buffalo Bisons, with a .508 slugging percentage.

With the slot at second base filled by Rogers Hornsby with the parent team, Cohen spent the 1927 season in Buffalo, with his .353 batting average leading the team to a league title.

He was warmly welcomed by Buffalo's Jewish community, which held an "Andy Cohen Day" in which he was bestowed with gifts, including a diamond ring from fans and a black onyx ring from a jewelry store, among other gifts.

Hornsby had played 155 games at second base in the 1927 season, but he was traded by the Giants to the Boston Braves in January 1928, freeing up a slot for Cohen.

1928

Though most sources give his full birth name as "Andrew Howard Cohen," a July 1928 profile published in The New York Times calls him "Andrew Jackson Cohen", citing his insistence on retaining his name despite pressure to change it, saying that "he had done pretty well up to then as Andrew Jackson Cohen and he would continue under that name", besides it would hurt his mother to play under an assumed name.

With the Mayor of New York City, Jimmy Walker, on hand to throw out the first ball at the 1928 Opening Day game, Cohen led the Giants to a 5–3 victory over the Boston Braves, hitting two singles and a double, knocking in two runs, and scoring two.

Thousands of fans rushed onto the field after the game and carried Cohen off the field on their shoulders.

As the Giants' regular second baseman, Cohen had his best season in the major leagues in 1928, batting .274 with 24 doubles, 7 triples, and 9 home runs, as on defense he was fourth in the NL in double plays turned by a second baseman (90).

The Giants played on his success on the field, with vendors selling "Ice Cream Cohens" in the concession stands at the Polo Grounds.

The Los Angeles Times called the Giants' promotion of Cohen one of "the most efficient job of ballyhoo that has been performed in the sport industry..."

Time magazine noted his popularity, reporting on a note from an adoring fan that read "I understand you are Jewish and single... if you would care to meet a brunette... Anyway drop me a little note...", one of hundreds Cohen said he had received.

He was part of a vaudeville act, telling jokes and singing parodies with Shanty Hogan, an Irish teammate from the Giants who played catcher for the team.

After the 1928 season they started performing on the Loew Circuit, with their first appearance on stage at the Loew's Commodore Theatre in the Manhattan on October 15, 1928.

The duo earned $1,800 ($0 today) a week, billed as "Cohen & Hogan" except in Boston, when the billings were reversed.

1929

Cohen batted .294 in 101 games with the Giants in the 1929 season, hitting 12 doubles, two triples, and five home runs, while leading the league in range factor per nine innings by a second baseman (6.33), and playing what turned out to be his final major league game on October 5, 1929.

The Giants sent Cohen to Newark during the 1929 season, to help refine Cohen's fielding.

Cohen batted .318 and set an International League record with 59 consecutive errorless games.

McGraw told Cohen that he would be called back up to the majors, and that day he broke his leg, never to play in the big leagues again.

Cohen played for the Newark Bears from 1929 until June 1932, when he was assigned to Minneapolis of the American Association.

1931

In 1931 he batted .317 for Newark of the International League.

Cohen's success in the Texas League drew the attention of John McGraw, manager of the New York Giants, who had been looking to sign a Jewish player to help draw crowds to compete with the New York Yankees and Babe Ruth playing across the Harlem River.

Despite the leg injury, Cohen led all International League second baseman in 1931 with a fielding percentage of .985, with 11 errors in 323 putouts and 412 assists, in addition to 66 double plays.

1933

With Minneapolis in 1933, Cohen led all American Association second basemen with a fielding percentage of .981 in 121 games.

1934

He was the brother of Syd Cohen, who pitched in the major leagues from 1934 to 1937.

Cohen's family moved to El Paso, Texas, when he was four years old.

Cohen was a star at El Paso High School in baseball, basketball, and football.

He was awarded a scholarship to the University of Alabama, where he played all three sports for the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Cohen left college early and signed a minor league contract to play in the Texas League.

1960

Cohen was an interim manager for the Philadelphia Phillies in 1960.

Cohen was born in Baltimore, Maryland, to Jewish parents who had been born in Europe.

In a 1960 interview, Cohen reminisced that "if we didn't kill vaudeville, we sure helped."
