"On June 9, 1914, Wagner’s ninth-inning double off the Phillies’ Erskine Mayer at Philadelphia’s Baker Bowl gave him 3,000 hits for his career. At that point, only Cap Anson – then credited with 3,047 hits – had reached that plateau in big league games.

The Tuesday afternoon crowd gave Wagner an ovation after the hit and when he subsequently scored Pittsburgh’s only run in a 3-1 loss."
