The batter in this photo has been identified as both Wagner and Owen Wilson at different times. I tend to think it more likely to be Wilson, who had a similar nose to Wagner but was also listed at 6' 2", 185 pounds. Bresnahan was 5' 9" 200 lbs, similar to Wagner's 5' 10 1/2" and probably 200-210 lbs. by 1908. Batter looks quite a bit taller than the catcher in this photo (tough to tell because they are both slightly bent over). I do have a photo of Wagner batting left in a pre game photo, but it won't load at this time. Not positive, but I'm giving 3-1 odds it not being Wagner.
