One of the First baseball movies ever was...

Did you know that one of the first baseball movies ever made was in 1909, and that it featured Honus Wagner?

The movie short was primarily of Honus Wagner teaching a young boy the art of hitting a baseball. That young boy was named Moses Horwitz. That young boy stayed in acting, and is better known to most as Moe Howard of the Three Stooges.

    Thanx for sharing.

    One of the early "talkie" movies on baseball was done by Joe E. Brown - actually referred to as a trilogy of Alibi Ike, Fireman save my child and Elmer the great.
