Default A classy "catch-up" move

I think it's great that the HOF is catching up and putting historically accurate information on the plaque.

I think it's a bit ironic that he was voted into the Hall of Fame, and those behind his election didn't know a few minor details like his real name or where and when he was born.

Thank goodness the researchers behind the scenes were able to dig this up, and we have the up to date corrected version only 4 years later
