The Design: At one point in late Summer of 1951, the New York Giants trailed the first place Brooklyn Dodgers by 13 1/2 games. Spurred by a 16-game winning streak, the Giants were able to tie Dodgers during the final weekend of the season. The 3-game playoff kicked off with a Giants victory at Ebbets Field. In game 2 at the Polo Grounds, the Dodgers came roaring back, tying up the series with a 10-0 win, thus setting up the 3rd and final game (cleverly depicted with the 3 stars on the graphic). Down 4-1 in the 9th, the Giants rallied for a run off starter Don Newcombe, who was eventually lifted with one out and runners at second and third. Ralph Branca was called upon to face Bobby Thomson, who had hit 31 home runs on the year, including a couple off of Branca. Thomson took the first pitch for a strike and then jumped on a Branca fastball…the rest, as they say, is history. Legendary broadcaster, Ross Hodges, was on the call…”There’s a long drive…it’s gonna be…I believe…the Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!” One of the more iconic home run calls of all time. Thomson’s HR was dubbed ‘The Shot Heard ’Round the World’ and it’s our inspiration for this graphic.
