  • Los Gigantes De Nueva York De Bill Terry Tuvieron Otra Buena
    1934 Los Gigantes de Nueva York de Bill Terry tuvieron otra buena temporada en 1934 anotando 760 carreras y permitiendo 583, el menor de la liga, pero no fue suficiente para obtener el banderín de la Liga Nacional. El joven Mel Ott bateó para 0.326 con 119 carreras anotadas solo superado por Paul Waner (con 122), recibiendo 85 bases por bolas y empató con Ripper Collins en cuadrangulares con 35. El manager-jugador Bill Terry fue segundo en bateo con 0.354 detrás de Waner (0.362) anotando 109 carreras. Jo Jo Moore bateó para 0.331 y cruzó el plato en 106 ocasiones. Hal Schumacher ganó 23 juegos (23-10,3.18 CLP) y Carl Hubbell tuvo marca de 21-12 con el título de carreras limpias permitidas de 2.30. Pero fueron los Cardenales de San Luis quienes se llevaron el título de la Liga Nacional. La competencia estuvo bastante interesante pues los Gigantes quedaron a dos juegos del primer sitio. Nueva York había sido el líder durante más de cuatro meses hasta que al final las cosas se le complicaron. Sucedió el 28 de septiembre que Dizzy Dean (30-7, 2.66 CLP) de los Cardenales blanqueó a los Rojos de Cincinnati para empatar con Gigantes en el primer lugar. Al siguiente día Paul Dean (19-11, 3.43 CLP), el hermano menor de Dizzy, vence 6-1 de nueva cuenta a los Rojos mientras que los Gigantes perdían con los Dodgers de Brooklyn. Un día después el mismo Dizzy blanquea otra vez a los Rojos 9-0 dando una ventaja a su equipo que jamás perdería.
