Nice video. It's funny that my son just showed that video a few minutes ago.

I had forgot he started his career prior to 1900. Really neat footage.

Honus sounds exactly like my grandfather did and talked like he did. Makes me miss him.

Nice shots of Forbes Field, also neat to see Pie Traynor in the shot where Wagner is coaching 3rd.

It's like Honus Wagner came to life. Incredibly cool. And yes, love that it was shot in Forbes Field.

Love how even over a decade after his playing days, he still looked graceful while fielding. True talent.

What a weird swing though – do we have any idea if that's how he would have batted during his playing days? The hinge at the hips is so extreme, but it would have yielded more contact I guess...
