SABR Digital Library: The Team That Time Won’t Forget: The 1951 New York Giants

Add a pennant-winning book to your collection with the newest e-book from SABR Digital Library:

The Team That Time Won’t Forget: The 1951 New York Giants
Edited by Bill Nowlin and C. Paul Rogers III 
Associate editors: Clem Comly and Len Levin 
Contributing editors: James Forr and Carl Riechers  
Foreword by Monte Irvin  
ISBN (e-book): 978-1-9335-9998-4
ISBN (paperback): 978-1-9335-9999-1    

Because of Bobby Thomson’s dramatic “Shot Heard ’Round the World” in the bottom of the ninth of the decisive playoff game against the Brooklyn Dodgers, the team will forever be in baseball public’s consciousness.  

But of course there is much more to the story of that famous team than a dramatic home run (albeit the most famous and probably the most dramatic home run in baseball history) and sign stealing. After all, the team started the year 2-12 and found itself 13 games out of first place with a little more than six weeks left in the season. They soon peeled off 16 wins in a row and went 37-7 down the stretch to force the famous playoff. The ’51 Giants did win 97 games other than the game everyone remembers.  

The team is also of historic significance because of its role in the integration of baseball. It was the year Willie Mays first showed his brilliance to major-league audiences, in late May joining black teammates Monte Irvin, Hank Thompson, and Ray Noble. At the time, the Dodgers and Giants had most of the smattering of African-American players in the big leagues, and it is no surprise that those two teams battled down to the wire for the National League pennant.  

Fueled by Giants manager Leo Durocher, who had previously managed the Dodgers, the two teams simply did not like each other and they showed it. Beanballs, flashing spikes, and brawls and near brawls were the order of the day. It is, of course, a rivalry that endures today, with both clubs having moved to the West Coast in 1958.  

For any number of reasons, the ’51 Giants truly are the team that time won’t forget. It is the aim of this book to assure that to be true by providing an in depth look at and future resource about that historic team.  

Includes a foreword by Giants outfielder Monte Irvin, as well as biographies of all players, coaches, executives, and broadcasters. Also included are chapters on the Polo Grounds, recaps of notable games, the integration of the Giants, sign-stealing, the 1951 All Star Game, World Series, and more.

Early registration now open for 2016 SABR Analytics Conference

Once again, we’re bringing together the top minds of the baseball analytic community under one roof to discuss, debate and share insightful ways to analyze and examine the great game of baseball.

The schedule will consist of a combination of Guest Speakers, Panels and Research Presentations — plus the unique Diamond Dollars Case Competition, in which undergraduate, graduate, and law school students from across the country analyze and present a real baseball operations decision.

The early registration rate is $395 for SABR members and $495 for nonmembers, or $350 for currently enrolled high school or college students (includes one-year membership to SABR).

Pre-Integration Era Committee elects no one to Baseball Hall of Fame in 2016

No candidates were elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame by the Pre-Integration Era Committee this week.

Baseball pioneer Doc Adams received votes on 10 of the 16 ballots for a percentage of 62.5, while 19th-century players Bill Dahlen and Harry Stovey each received votes on eight of the 16 ballots (50 percent). To earn election, candidates needed to be named on at least 75 percent of all ballots cast.

All three of the top vote-getters were selected as SABR Overlooked 19th Century Base Ball Legends in recent years, with Adams voted as the Overlooked Legend for 2014; Dahlen in 2012 and Stovey in 2011. SABR’s Overlooked Legend in 2010, Deacon White, was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2013 by the Pre-Integration Era Committee.

The 2016 ballot featured six former players, three executives, and one of baseball’s earliest organizers. The other finalists — Sam Breadon, Wes Ferrell, Garry Herrmann, Marty Marion, Frank McCormick, Chris von der Ahe, and Bucky Walters — received three or fewer votes from the Pre-Integration Era Committee.

The 16-person voting committee included SABR members Pat Gillick, Steve Hirdt, Gary Hughes, Peter Morris, Tal Smith, and Tim Wendel, along with Hall of Famers Bert Blyleven, Bobby Cox, and Phil Niekro; major league executives Chuck Armstrong and Bill DeWitt; and veteran media members Jack O’Connell, Claire Smith, Tim Sullivan, T.R. Sullivan, and Gary Thorne.

Seeking donations for new SABR book on Deadball Era World Series

Under the auspices of SABR’s Deadball Era Committee, Steve Steinberg and Tom Simon are editing a book on the World Series of the Deadball Era. The drama of the national pastime during that bygone time is captured through the photographs and words of the men who reported the drama for the nation’s newspapers, when they were the only medium around. Sportswriters of the time wrote with a lyrical prose, more descriptive than newspaper accounts of the past 50 years.

Never before has the story of the early World Series been told in their words, accompanied by terrific visual images — many of them rare and not seen for years — in this book. Together through the lens and pens of yesteryear, the reader gets an intimate view of baseball’s championships of the early 20th century.

This book will be published in the spring of 2017 by St. Johann Press, a small, quality New Jersey publisher that has done a number of niche sports books. Members of the Deadball Era Committee have served as editors of individual World Series chapters; they have chosen vivid accounts that take the reader back in time. Around 200 evocative high-quality photos, drawn from public archives and private collectors, will accompany the text.

Because the approval of this book predates the establishment of the SABR Digital Library publishing program, and because it will include so many high-quality photos from different sources, we are seeking contributions to help cover the excess cost over a typical SABR team book.

If you want to help: Checks can be made out to SABR and mailed to Steve Steinberg at the address below:

Steve Steinberg
Orcas Business Park
5700 Sixth Ave. South #214
Seattle, WA 98108

SABR is a 501(c)(3) organization and all donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Please consider making a donation before December 31; we would like to have the fundraising completed by March 31, 2016.

If you donate $100 or more, you will get a free copy of the book, and if you are a major contributor of $200 or more, your name will be mentioned in the book as a Deadball Era Defender. All donations, no matter how small, will make a difference and be greatly appreciated.

If you have any questions, please contact Steve at ssteinberg@trinorth.com. Thank you.

— John McMurray
Chair, SABR Deadball Era Committee


New SABR research resource: 1902-1919 Milwaukee Brewers archives

SABR member Dennis Pajot, an expert in the early history of Milwaukee baseball, has offered to share a series of manuscripts that he has prepared on the Milwaukee Brewers of the American Association.

These research files — one PDF for each season — include more than 1,600 pages of original research on the Milwaukee Brewers from their beginnings in 1902 until the end of the Deadball Era in 1919. The Brewers rosters in those years included some of the most interesting characters in the game, including Hall of Famer Ray Schalk, his Black Sox teammate Happy Felsch, baseball clown Germany Schaefer, Olympic star Jim Thorpe, Cy Slapnicka (who later scouted Bob Feller), and manager Joe Cantillon (who later signed Walter Johnson.)

These files are now available on SABR’s Research Resources page. Click here to learn more.

Retrosheet announces December 2015 updates

Our friends at Retrosheet have announced their update for December 2015:

All of the 2015 event files are now available, along with updated game logs and transaction data. There are hundreds of new games that have been added to the previously released event files from 1925 to 1970. The Most Wanted list has been updated to reflect our progress. Much work went into completing the discrepancy files for 1952-1955 and the rest of that decade is under active review.

The most significant addition to older seasons is the box score files for 1913. Tom Ruane did a considerable amount work on this season and oversaw the project.

Other contributors (a partial list, to be sure) were Dave Lamoureaux, Mike Grahek, Ron Weaver, Wayne Voltz, Kevin Wesley, John Proulx, Herm Krabbenhoft, Dixie Tourangeau, and Dave Newman, as well as Greg Hilton of the St. Louis County Library.
