Marjorie Adams was truly a character with a passion to get her great-grandpa recognized as a baseball founder. Check out this YouTube video from SABR. I hope it works right here. It was made just a few months ago. Yes, it is over an hour. But all you have to do is click on sections of it and you will be blown away by what Doc Adams did for the game.
I love documentaries and the thought crossed my mind that if Doc Adams gets into the HOF this coming December (and the chances are good), Marjorie's (successful) campaign for her great grandpa would make for a great one-hour doc on the MLB Network. Any doc makers out there?!?

Great video with a ton of history about the Doc and all he did.
Did get a little long towards the end a the short Corky was wearing is very unique

Thanks for sharing this video

Worth the watch if you are into the history of baseball
