F. "Heinie" Wagner Debut: July 1, 1902 |
Heinie Wagner's professional career began in 1901 in the New York State League. He played 17 games at shortstop for the 1902 New York Giants (.214; 12-56 with 0 walks) and spent four seasons in Newark (Eastern League) before joining the Red Sox in 1906.
Wagner was Boston's shortstop from 1907 to 1913, when he was replaced by Everett Scott. He stayed on as a coach and saw limited playing time, which included three games in 1918. He also spent 1917 as the manager of Hartford in the Eastern League.
Wagner's most important contribution to the 1918 Red Sox was convincing Babe Ruth to return to the team after Ruth's July 4th desertion. Wagner also was involved in a dugout brawl with Cubs first base coach Otto Knabe during Game Two of the World Series.
