John Peter Wagner (Chartier, Pensilvania, Estados Unidos; 24 de febrero de 1874 - Carnegie, Pensilvania, Estados Unidos; 6 de diciembre de 1955), más conocido como Honus Wagner, fue un jugador, mánager y entrenador de béisbol estadounidense.
Johannes Peter "Honus" Wagner (/ ˈ h ɒ n ə s ˈ w æ ɡ n ər / HON-əs WAG-nər; February 24, 1874 – December 6, 1955), was an American baseball shortstop who played 21 seasons in Major League Baseball from 1897 to 1917, almost entirely for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Wagner outplayed Cobb, hitting .333 to .231 for Cobb, stealing six bases to Cobb’s two, and getting six RBIs to five. Honus’s six steals stood as the Series record until Lou Brock stole seven in both 1967 and 1968. The Series victory was particularly sweet for Wagner, who had vindicated himself.
The Pirates won their third straight pennant in 1903 thanks to a powerful lineup that included legendary shortstop Honus Wagner, who hit .355 and drove in 101 runs, player-manager Fred Clarke, who hit .351, and Ginger Beaumont, who hit .341 and led the league in hits and runs.
Debut: July 19, 1897 (Age 23-145d, 2,011th in major league history) Last Game: (Age 43-205d) 0 AB, 0 H, 0 HR, 0 RBI, 0 SB. Hall of Fame: Inducted as Player in 1936. (Voted by BBWAA on 215/226 ballots) Induction ceremony in Cooperstown held in 1939.
Wagner hit .300-or-better for 15 straight seasons from 1899-1913. In that span, Wagner won eight National League batting titles, led the NL in doubles seven times, stolen bases five times and RBI four times.
In 1903, they lost the first World Series to the Boston Pilgrims, five games to three, as Wagner batted just .222. From 1903 to 1909, he won six batting titles.
