I read where the Mets gave Mrs. McGraw season tickets at the Polo Grounds.

Gaylord Perry mentioned Ron Hunt. I remember when he was playing for the Expos and would purposely get hit by pitches.

Who was the greatest center fielder in New York in the fifties?

@@edwardtatum9930 Mays, mantle and duke snider idk which was the best

Mantle in 50 s May s in 60 s…btw Duke was one helluva player

NYC won every WS between 1949-1956.

You're living in a fantasy world, dude! That era in baseball ended with the Giants and Dodgers moving to California in early 1958.

@@dariowiter3078 The real Giants and Dodgers belong to New York, 🗽Those California ones are pretenders and fakes.

Glad the teams moved west. East Coast snobbery had kept the third major league from being recognized as one in 1946: the Pacific Coast League, where the San Francisco Seals dominated most years, along with the San Diego Padres, Los Angeles Angels, Hollywood Stars, Oakland Oaks, Sacramento Solons, Portland Beavers, and Seattle Rainiers. The players were, for the most part, not interested in going to the "major" league. They liked playing on the West Coast and were just as talented. There's a 1946 PCL film that was used to try to get the American and National Leagues to recognize them as a third major league, but unfortunately it didn't work. That film is here on KZfaq. Look for it and you might learn some history of the old PCL, when it was considered AAAA, not AAA!

Were you around when Mays was with the Mets at the end of his career?

It`s my understanding that the spot that Walter O`Malley had picked is now where the arena where the Brooklyn Nets is located

Thank you for sharing that bit of information. I had no idea. How ironic that a sports facility is ultimately built on that site!

the stick is gone

Cal Ripken changed his continuously all the way to his last game

I don't know. I've never seen your batting stance.

Stealing signs in baseball is as old as prostitution....it's been going on since day one and is still going on today....it's also like steroids...as science improves they come up ways to get away with it...the bottom line is there is too much money being paid to players who will do anything to win and keep getting paid big money.....the only thing new in the world is the history u haven't read yet..

Anything illegal is okay, as long as you're not caught.

Their batting averages went down at home with the sign stealing. Only three players averages improved when the signs were used..everyone else’s dropped

Call the whaaaaambulance.

Moses is the real villain not the O’Malley

​@@jayclarke5466 Try telling that to Brooklyn fans. They're still hating O'Malley even to this day. I'd love to compose a letter to Peter O'Malley, telling him that I think his father is the victim in this scenario, and not the villain. Walter tried everything in his power to keep the Dodgers in Brooklyn, Moses wouldn't budge, so therefore O'Malley realized he had no chance of keeping the team in Brooklyn, and began talks with Los Angeles about moving his team there.

Thought the Giants flirted with Queens too

The A's have had the lowest attendance for any professional sports game in the Bay Area: something like 400 for a night game in the early 1980s, though it could have been the late 70's. They have also thought of leaving, and in fact, Horace Stoneham could have nixed them moving to the Bay Area back in 1967. He should have said no. The A's are thinking of leaving now. Their owners don't want to pay for a new park, and can't get Oakland to put in any money except for land near the harbor, and the shipping industry there is saying hell no! The Port of Oakland makes a hell of a lot more money from shipping than the A's can regarding tax revenue for the town. And the A's don't want to keep playing in the Colisewer. Portland A's has a nice ring to it!

I have heard another rumor that I would not be surprised if it is true, that the baseball Giants in the early 1970s were tired of bad attendance at Candlestick Park and that Horace Stoneham the Giant owner who moved them to San Francisco in the late 1950s regretted that move and that by the early 1970s with the talk of the football Giants moving to the New Jersey Meadowlands a move that did happen, that Horace Stoneham was interested in moving the Giants back to the East Coast to the same New Jersey Meadowlands. But the Owners of the Yankees and Mets said NO to that idea, And that was that. This is why Major League Baseball should not have Antitrust Exemption and that the Yankees & Mets should not have the right to claim Northern and Central New Jersey as their territory. The Yankees & Mets should only be allowed to claim Southeastern New York State as their territory.

@@ldfreitas9437 The A's ought to move back to Philadelphia.

Ralph Terry was a pitcher for the Yankees, never played for the Giants. It was Bill Terry, the great first baseman and manager of the Giants. He died in 1989.

Correct,but Don Larsen pitched for Giants

​@@jayclarke5466 How does Don Larsen figure into this equation?

As for the football version I call them the "They're too ashamed to call themselves the New Jersey Giants"

@@jerryn.1823 To me they ARE the New Jersey Giants, not the New York Giants, likewise with the Jets; both teams are based in New Jersey, not New York.

Yes we do! My whole life we have heard about the NY Giants, their players, their history, everything. Their retired uniform numbers are flown in SF, and we still fly alk the NY Giants World Series flags, just as if we were alwaysin the same city. We have also continued the rivalry with the Dodgers.

And your team is?

So what? We won 3 in 5, and we might win this year. Beat LA! Since 1995 and the expanded playoff format, only one team has won back to back WS: the Yankees in '97, '98. and '99. No one has won 3 in every other years but the San Francisco Giants! They'd have had the WS in 1994 if the season hadn't got called off for the strike. And regarding the Dodgers and 202, it's crap! Sixty games? No WS championship should have been given for the season! More games were played in 1994.

At the time I’m commenting, the Giants have the most wins of any franchise in the history of baseball: 11,277 total wins.

@@mitchelvalentino1569 that winning percentage not impressive

@@DrunkenSlob The Giants have the second highest winning percentage ever at .535, highest ever in the N.L. and second only to the Yankees in MLB. Some fans would consider this impressive, but it’s not the point. The Giants’ record of most wins ever is a remarkable and noteworthy distinction. Great team, great history.

how many SBs have the Cowboys won vs how many WS have the Giants won??

Cowshits are a joke.

You must not like baseball. The SF Giants are one of the most respected teams in baseball. Our rivals hate us but they respect the organization. But your a cowboy fan. What do you know?. Lmao!
