has gloss | eng: The New York Giants season saw the Giants finish first in the National League with a record of 98 wins and 59 losses. At the end of the season, they were tied with their arch-rivals, the Brooklyn Dodgers, for first place in the League, prompting a three-game playoff for the pennant. In the third game, Bobby Thomson hit a stunning walk-off home run to clinch the pennant for the Giants, a moment immortalized as the Shot Heard 'Round the World (discussed in more detail below). The Giants, however, lost the 1951 World Series to the New York Yankees in six games. |
