  • Play by Play Analysis of the 1951 National League Pennant Race
    Play By Play Analysis of the 1951 National League Pennant Race By David W. Smith July 12, 2001 The end of the 1951 National League pennant race is legendary and well known even to casual baseball fans. The final game of the playoff series between Brooklyn and New York is arguably the most famous baseball game ever played. In fact its significance goes even further as it has been the subject of many sociological and psychological treatises. We have seen a number of 50th anniversary celebrations and analyses, most recently the one on HBO last night. When Bobby Thomson lined Ralph Branca's 0-1 fast ball into the left field stands, a permanent link between the two men was established in baseball lore, made more vivid by announcer Russ Hodges' nearly delirious description of the play: "The Giants win the pennant". etc. Although this dramatic ending is central for most people, there is much more of interest that took place in the late summer and early fall of 1951, the first full year of the United States' presence in the Korean "Police Action". What happened to put Thomson and Branca together on center stage? Why were so many people caught up in this daily struggle with such passion? Or, to put it more formally, what is the relevant context which will help us to understand why it is still discussed so widely half a century later? There have been a number of books providing comprehensive records of the daily activities of the two teams and I won't try to repeat what has already been done.
