Not to derail this thread or anything, but we've all seen so many items which have Wagner's name written as "Hans." Does anyone know of contemporary accounts (perhaps actual audio) that establish precisely what the baseball world called him? "Honus" is the name we've all come to know and Johannes is his birth name, but with the amount of times that "Hans" has appeared, I wonder whether or not there was a consensus at the time he played. Maybe it differed regionally, because communication and media wasn't as widespread and nationalized as it is now?
