Just saw this on Facebook:
It's evidently from 1933, when Honus was 59 years old. https://url.digitalrelab.com/v1/s3ur...hdl6sF1-7NTfgU Here it is on Youtube (colorized): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUGIA4FLP9s Steve

That's a great video.
Somewhere I have a clipping from 1922, one of the NY papers, of George Gore still playing sandlot ball at age 63. Now if only I could somehow keep it together like that. |

when Honus is hitting, Paul Waner is in the background, shouting his approval.

That was my first thought. Played in a wood bat travel league my senior year of high school and I don’t remember ever getting a crack sound as fulfilling as that line drive he rakes at the end of the video.

Honus looked like he was still having a ball. I love the crooked, dirty, grimy hat that he's wearing as well.

Loved the video.
I am not sure why but I was surprised at the sound of his voice as it was very much not what I had expected. I guess that maybe Honus looked older than his age, perhaps his voice would be a bit more feeble and drawn out. Am I the only one who was surprised at his voice? |

wow! Thanks for posting. Loved it.
Ole Wags could still play at 59! I bet he could hold his own in a real game that year. Amazing the catcher back there without any protective pads (except for helmet)
