One day he [Wagner] was batting against a young pitcher who had just come into the league. The catcher was a kid, too . The pitcher threw Honus a curve ball, and he swung at it and missed and fell down. Looked helpless as a robin.

Well, Honus hit a line drive so hard the fence in left field went back and forth for five minutes.
