Waddell is a great centerpiece. I'd want to surround him with contemporaries, so they could share stories about other players they all knew.

I'll start with Wagner. He was a great storyteller and loved a good laugh. He and Rube were teammates with Louisville at the beginning of Rube's ML career, so they knew each other and certainly would've respected each others' talents. Plus, both liked to play with kids, so putting up with me would've been in their character.

The third guy I'd add would be Hans Lobert. He and Wagner were friends (Wagner lent Lobert his nickname) and from reading and hearing The Glory of their Times, Lobert was a lively, fun loving fellow.

My host would be Larry Ritter. I'd just sit there, tip a few, and listen.

Wagner
Lobert
Ritter
