    Postseason Recaps, Line Scores, Stats & Records World Champions 1955 World Champions For the Brooklyn Dodgers, the 1955 World Series was not just a chance to win a championship, but an opportunity to avenge five previous World Series failures at the hands of their chief rivals, the New York Yankees. Even with their ace Don Newcombe on the mound, the Dodgers seemed to be doomed from the start, as three Yankee home runs set back Newcombe and the rest of the team in their opening 6-5 loss. Game 2 had the same result, as New York's southpaw Tommy Byrne held Brooklyn to five hits in a 4-2 victory. With the Series heading back to Brooklyn, Johnny Podres was given the start for Game 3. The Dodger lefty stymied the Yankees' offense over the first seven innings by allowing one run on four hits en route to an 8-3 victory. Podres gave the Dodger faithful a hint as to what lay ahead in the series with his complete-game, six-strikeout performance. Game 4 at Ebbets Field turned out to be an all-out slugfest. After falling behind early, 3-1, the Dodgers used the long ball to knot up the series. Future Hall of Famers Roy Campanella and Duke Snider each homered and Gil Hodges collected three of the club’s 14 hits, including a home run in the 8-5 triumph. Snider's third and fourth home runs of the Series provided the support needed for rookie Roger Craig and the Dodgers took Game 5 by a score of 5-3.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • Mobile Baseball, 1951-1962
    Transcribed Pages from the Charles Dickson Papers Box 3 Folder 5: Mobile Baseball 1951-1962 356. Mobile Register April 4 – 1951 Boston Braves vs. Brooklyn Dodgers In the only major league exhibition game carded at Mobile this season, the two National League clubs waged a three-hour-and-five-minute marathon that saw 18 hits, 18 runs, three errors, and 20 free tickets to first by a battery of nine pitchers. The final result of the game was a score of 10 to 8 in favor of “Lippy” Leo Durocher’s Brooklyn Dodgers against Billy Southworth’s Boston Braves. The Mobile fans had the pleasure of seeing Eddie Stanky in action on second base for the Brooklyn Dodgers. (TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE: SEVERAL INDEPENDENT SOURCES CONFIRMED THAT DUROCHER WAS NOT THE MANAGER OF THE DODGERS IN 1951; THE DODGERS WERE MANAGED BY CHUCK DRESSEN. DUROCHER WAS THEN MANAGER OF THE NEW YORK GIANTS) Clyde King King’s contract purchased from Montreal could help the Brooklyn Dodgers considerably. Clyde King is not exactly a newcomer to the Dodgers. He appeared on the team as a left- handed pitcher in 1944, 1945, and 1949, but lacked the required speed. He’s smart, though, and has control. King formerly played with the Mobile Bears. April 5 – 1951 John Hall Hall will be back with the Mobile Bears during the 1951 season after three seasons. Few fans realize that in the fall of 1947, Branch Rickey could have sold Hall for exactly $100,000. That was the offering price of the young rookie who came out of nowhere to set the Southern Assn.

  • Shuba's Historic Handshake Immortalized with Statue
    Shuba’s Historic Handshake Immortalized with Statue SPORTS June 17, 2021 By Jim Mancari A statue (above) in Youngstown, Ohio, is set to be unveiled on July 17 depicting the memorable handshake (inset) between Montreal Royals outfielder George Shuba and Jackie Robinson on April 18, 1946. (Photo: Courtesy Marc Mellon) Brooklyn Dodgers fans of the 1950s can easily rattle off the names of the greats: Gil Hodges, Roy Campanella, Duke Snider, Jackie Robinson, Pee Wee Reese, Carl Furillo, Don Newcombe, Carl Erskine, and Preacher Roe. Only the true diehards might remember the name George Shuba, who served as the team’s utility outfielder and left-handed pinch hitter for seven seasons from 1948 through 1955. Known as “Shotgun” for his ability to hit line drives, Shuba’s on-field claim to fame was when he became the first player in National League history to hit a pinch-hit home run in the World Series. He accomplished the feat in the 1953 fall classic off New York Yankees pitcher Allie Reynolds. Shuba, though, will be more so remembered for a gesture that occurred just off the field of play — a handshake with Robinson on April 18, 1946, at a time when baseball’s color barrier was about to be broken. To commemorate the moment, a statue of Shuba and Robinson is set to be unveiled on July 17 in Shuba’s hometown of Youngstown, Ohio. The monument celebrating racial equality will honor both Robinson and Shuba, who died in 2014 at the age of 89. “We’re excited about unveiling and dedicating this memorial to the historic handshake of Jackie Robinson and George ‘Shotgun’ Shuba,” said Ernie Brown, co-chair of the committee that developed the statue.
