GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT

bobby thomson

i was busy packing draperies on a part time afternoon job for one buck an hour while attending college when at,  "3:58 p.m. EST on October 3, 1951",   "... Bobby Thomson drove a pitch to deep left field for a walk-off home run to clinch the pennant for the Giants.".  i heard the radio in another establishment through my open window in the garment center building.

the giants went 50-12 over their final 62 games.  "....the Giants frequently stole pitch signals from the bleachers over the last few months of the regular season. Bobby Thomson, who would figure prominently in the upcoming playoff, was one of the hitters who chose to receive the signs. ..."  whoa - athletes trying to get an advantage in order to win.  i'm shocked.
