A slideshow featuring pictures of baseball stars, mostly from 1911-1913. The background song is Scott Joplin's "Fig Leaf Rag." Lawrence Ritter interviews former N.Y. Giant Fred Snodgrass in 1963 for his classic book, "The Glory of Their Times."

  • sounds like the same song from part 1...and if its a different song, scott joplin really needed some inspiration

  • You really can't tell the difference? Maybe you should change your name to rockerDEAF1231.

  • Same thing with Bill Buchner of Boston 1986 vs the Mets. Bill was a very good ballplayer who will be remembered for one lousy ground ball...

  • another fine video :)

  • nap lajoie was no matinee idol, but nobody would want to be mistaken for joe jackson. at least not from the front.

  • @runawayuniverse You're right!

  • @tatkopitwmf The player identified as Joe Jackson is actually Joe Jackson

  • these guys were real men and true legends of the game..I enjoy vintage baseball more than modern baseball..today's players are pussies compared to the dead ball era players. their steroids and ridiculous contracts and the way they are pampered and the way they fall apart from injury, they wouldn't be able to play with these dead ball era guys.

  • great job on these videos. i've been reading about these old-time players, which makes watching these even better. thanks.

  • The player identified as Joe Jackson is actually Napoleon Lajoie.

  • Awesome! We're very blessed to be in an era were we can have moments to hear and view the past!  Always insightful! Thanks for posting this! Amazing!

  • Snodgrass' muff? That's terrible. Dropping a ball in the World Series doens't make warrant challenging one's manhood.
