HONUS WAGNER Greatest Shortstop of All Time Many baseball authorities name Honus Wagner as the greatest all-around baseball player of all time. His career statistics certainly make a good case for that, and also one area statistics don't cover very well - defense - add to the luster of his reputation. Comparing players is a constant debate, but a baseball expert who has seen all the greatest players can be a good place to start. Ed Barrow was one of Wagner's caoches in his early career, and later would become the general manager of the New York Yankees. After working with such stars as Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, and Joe DiMaggio, Barrow would insist that Honus Wagner was the greatest player that he ever saw. Wagner's statistics show that he batted over .300 for 17 consecutive seasons, an amazing accomplishment. He won the league batting title in 8 of those seasons, and had a lifetime batting average of .329. Another offensive statistic shows that he led the league in stolen bases a total of 5 times.

42. Honus Wagner Biography Summary of the life and baseball accomplishmentsof John Peter honus wagner. Copyright 2001 by PageWise, Inc....... Title honus wagner biography http://allsands.com/Sports/History/honuswagnerbio_rgs_gn.htm

Honus Wagner biography John Peter Wagner was born in Carnegie, Pennsylvania on February 24, 1874. He was one of nine children born to Catherine and Peter Wagner. Peter Wagner, an immigrant from Bavaria, worked in the coalmines to support his family. From the age 12 until age 16, Wagner worked in the mines with his father. At age 16, Wagner left the mines to work briefly for his brother Charley, who had a barbershop. Wagner's passion was baseball and his brother Al got him a shot with Steubenville, Ohio's team in the Tri-State League. Wagner was an outfielder and was paid $35 per month. He was an instant success and advanced to Patterson, New Jersey in the Atlantic League where he caught the eye of Louisville, Kentucky - then a member of the National League. Louisville managed to buy Wagner's contract from Patterson for $800. Wagner began his major league career as an outfielder for Louisville in 1897 and hit .338 that year. When the Louisville franchise folded following the 1899 season, owner Barney Dreyfuss bought Pittsburgh and asked Wagner to go with him. Wagner went to Pittsburgh and became one of the greatest Pirates ever. He hit .381 in 1900 and won his first of eight National League batting titles. Wagner helped the Pirates win three consecutive National League pennants in 1901, 1902, and 1903. bodyOffer(1094) In 1903, Wagner finally became a full-time shortstop after playing all over the field for many years. That year he helped the Pirates to win the first World Series ever played and picked up a batting title of his own. Wagner was bow-legged and stocky so he didn't look like an average shortstop. His opponents were amazed with his defensive skills. Wagner topped the National League in doubles seven times, in slugging six times, in RBIs five times, and in stolen bases five times. In 1909, Wagner helped the Pirates win yet another pennant. The Pirates also won the World Series Championship in 1909 after beating the Detroit Tigers in seven games.

Honus Wagner : A Biography Home by Dennis DeValeria Jeanne Burke DeValeria See More Details Univ of Pittsburgh Pr (Trd); ISBN: 0822956659 ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.86 x 8.95 x 5.97 Other Editions: Audio Cassette Reviews Amazon.com In Honus Wagner Jeff Silverman AudioFile A valuable book for baseball fans, this is the most comprehensive biography of Wagner, an early twentieth-century baseball star and inaugural Hall-of-Famer. Ian Esmo reads with an authoritative, understated voice, which lays out the story without hyperbole. Esmo's reading is as relaxing as a summer afternoon. His voice has a soothing quality that makes the book interesting and informative, and his varied pitch keeps this rather scholarly sounding work flowing. He also pauses before quotes to set them apart, a technique necessary since Esmo doesn't use any character voices. The DeValerias have done us a service with this book, and Esmo's narration fits nicely with its tone.

Navigation diamondfans.com A web site for baseball fans of all ages. Player Profile: Honus Wagner Name: John Peter "Honus" Wagner (The Flying Dutchman) shortstop Lived: Career span: Hall of Fame? yes (1936) Primary teams: Pittsburgh Pirates (1900-1917) Best Year: 1908: 201 hits, .354 avg., 53 SB, 109 RBI Rank on Greatest Players list Player notes : Honus Wagner is rightfully regarded as the greatest shortstop to ever play the game. Almost a half a century since his death, he remains as one of the icons of the game, a standard by which greatness is still measured. He won eight batting championships (including six of seven fron 1903 through 1909), and led the league in doubles seven times, in RBI five times, in stolen bases five times, and in extra base hits seven times. He was also an outstanding shortstop, said to throw the ball to first base so hard that the pebbles he had scooped up would arrive at the bag along with the ball. Branch Rickey called him the greatest player he had ever seen. Wagner was also a man of principle, who was said to have turned down a significant increase in salary to jump to the American League because he like Pittsburgh. He also asked that his picture be removed from his 1909 baseball card because the card was distributed by a tobacco company. Some of the cards had already been distributed, however, and the card is now one of the most expensive and famous of the old baseball cards.
