History states that Ty Cobb fought several umpires during his career, none on the field of play. This was at a time when umpires were shown very little respect and it was not unusual for players to attempt to intimidate umpires on the field.

If players tried to do something like that in today's game they would be suspended immediately and probably for a very long time.
